INDIA: Human Rights Report 2009

 The Asian Centre for Human Rights (ACHR) publishes its 2009 Annual Report on Human Rights in India as the Congress led United Progressive Alliance government assumes its second term following the elections.

The findings of the report are a clear challenge to the new government. ACHR argues that the new government must find new answers to the growing security problem arising out of the Naxalism. Current security-driven responses are not working; indeed they may even be counter-productive.

The report includes consideration of the rights of children.
