Taking cognizance over the incident of schoolchildren drinking water from the pits the Madhya Pradesh Human Rights Commission (MPHRC) has asked the Barwani Collector and the District Panchayat Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to submit report over the issue within three days.
The Commission considering the incidence as very serious issue sent letters through fax to Barwani Collector and the District Panchayat CEO seeking their report over the issue within three working days.
The Commission is of the view that the failure to provide dirking water to the school children is the violation of their human rights.
Meanwhile, in another case the Commission has recommended to pay compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the family of woman who died during the sterilization operation.
The Commission has recommended paying the compensation to the family of Sangita a resident of village Rawti in Ratlam district who died due to excessive bleeding through a cut in some part of the body during the sterilization operation.
The Commission while hearing the case came to know that the deceased was not provided comprehensive treatment after the bleeding started from her body. No specialist doctor was available there due to that the woman died due to lack of medical attention and treatment.
The Commission has considered it as the violation of right of living of the woman and said that her children are also deprived of maternal right and a family was deprived of a wife and a mother and for that her family is entitled for compensation.
