In Photos: NHRC instructions on manual scavenging sent to wrong dept

The law division of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) on Tuesday sent a reminder to the city collector to submit an action-taken report on manual scavenging in Mumbai, as per its directions in a letter dated May 1, as the deadline for the same had elapsed. However, mid-day has learnt that the NHRC had issued the letter to the wrong department. It was addressed to the district magistrate (city), while the area where instances of manual scavenging were reported falls under the jurisdiction of the district magistrate (suburban).
