I am continuously pursuing the case for justice and received the consequence of false implication by the police of Paharganj Police Station in New Delhi.   I and associates of my organization (PVCHR)  filed many petitions, but the NHRC responded with mere eye-wash tactics. We received surprising responses from the Home Ministry of India and office of Honourable President of India, but there is a mysterious silence by the NHRC. Why?

I issued an open letter with detailed facts and evidences titled “Threat to my life is judged at office desk in NHRC, I am left to live at Perpetrators’ mercy: Lenin Raghuvanshi” on 9 June 2019  and simultaneously I wrote to the President of India, the Home Minister of India and the Chairperson of the NHRC. I faced intimidation, false criminal implication in Varanasi and Delhi due to support to a survivor of domestic violence in Varanasi. 

I protested on the technical fault of the visit of UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of Human Rights Defenders then many key players and elites of civil societies initiated a conspiracy, and mysterious silence on my cases and inside campaign on my dignity. I witness many manipulating discussions in important meetings at Kathmandu and Bangkok. 

This matter concerns not only  life and the reputation of a human rights defender, but also the very legitimacy of  human rights work.

Join me in asking H.E.President of India, Prime Minister of India and National Human Rights Commission for the following demands

1. To order for the CBI Investigation in the cases registered against me. 

2. To develop a national law for the protection of human rights defenders, and strengthen the capacity and mandate of the NHRC’s focal point on defenders.The NHRC needs to establish and resource a full-time dedicated focal point, to intervene in cases where human rights defenders are at risk, and to investigate and promote accountability where threats and attacks occur.
