Human Rights Institutions Questions
The Human Rights Commission of Sri Lanka (HRCSL) is an independent statutory body established by the Sri Lankan Parliament in 1996. Its mandate is to promote and protect human rights in Sri Lanka. The HRCSL is responsible for investigating complaints of human rights violations, conducting inquiries, and taking appropriate action to provide redress to victims. It also monitors the implementation of international human rights standards and provides recommendations to the government for policy and legal reforms. The HRCSL plays a crucial role in raising awareness about human rights, conducting research, and advocating for the protection of human rights in Sri Lanka.
