National Human Rights Commission Chairman Tap Bahadur Magar has said that only 13.67 percent of the commission's recommendations have been fully implemented. Speaking at the Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Committee under the House of Representatives on Friday, Speaker Magar expressed his concern that the commission's recommendation to the government to prosecute the perpetrators and compensate the victims is not being implemented and the public's faith in the commission is decreasing.

President Magar said that although the government has formed a committee to implement the recommendations of the commission, there has been no satisfactory progress and said that since the beginning of the current financial year, 31 complaints have been registered with the commission and 26 of them have been recommended to the government and 34 complaints have been put on hold or dismissed. He also informed that there are currently 1,198 complaints in the decision process in the commission.

In the last financial year, the commission completed investigations into 368 complaints and recommended action in 101 complaints and recommended compensation to 90 victims. He  Departmental action has been taken against 9 people and 4 people have been convicted.

He said that although the Cabinet has formed a committee for the improvement of implementation, it has not been effectively active. Emphasizing that only when the commission recommends action and compensation will increase the trust of the citizens towards the commission, he requested the government to take initiatives to implement the recommendations of complaints related to human rights violations.
