Chakmas Blocked from SIR Hearings in Arunachal Pradesh, NHRC Intervention Sought

Members of the Chakma community were denied entry to the Special Investigation Report hearings held in Arunachal Pradesh. The decision to bar the group from the proceedings has raised concerns about their right to participate in legal processes. In response, the Chakma representatives have approached the National Human Rights Commission, seeking intervention to ensure their participation in the hearings. The NHRC has been notified of the incident and is expected to review the situation. The case highlights ongoing tensions between tribal communities and state authorities over access to judicial forums.
