Srinagar, May 15: A division bench of J&K High Court comprising Chief Justice Gita Mittal and Justice Tashi Rabstan has directed the State to inform it about setting up of the Women and Child Rights Commissions.
The court observed that a status report dated 09.05.2019 has been filed by the Social Welfare department tin purported compliance of the court order dated 15.02.2019.
"Unfortunately, this verbose report makes several references to the respondents' inability to take steps on account of the Model Code of Conduct which is in vogue. Furthermore, the format of the report renders it impossible to understand as to whether the respondents have taken requisites steps," the court observed.
It directed the respondents to place the compliance of the court orders as well as the requirements of law in a tabulation setting out the staff position, institution-wise. In case the recruitment processes are underway, the respondents shall, in the tabulation, set out the dates and steps taken for the same 2 as well as the dates on which the recruitment would be completed and also in a tabulation give the details of the village level and district level protection committees in the state.
