Abstract

Recently, the United Nations-linked Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI) delayed the accreditation of the National Human Rights Commission-India (NHRC) for the second year in a row. The decision could now affect India’s ability to vote at the Human Rights Council and some UNGA bodies. This decision was taken during the meeting of the Sub Committee on Accreditation (SCA) on May 1, which included representatives from New Zealand, South Africa, Honduras, and Greece.
