KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has asserted that the incumbent government was active in preventing the cases of violation of human rights.

In a message on the occasion of the International Human Rights Day today, PM Oli added that if such cases are to occur, the government was also effortful to identify the culprits and bring them to justice as well to deliver justice to the victims.

He reiterated that the incumbent government’s primary responsibility was to protect and promote human rights since the issue of human rights was not only an issue of commitment but also faith and integrity.

Urging all sectors’ contributions to build human rights-friendly culture and to institutionalize it, PM Oli argued that the sole effort of government would not alone yield a favorable result towards this end.

According to him, the government has anticipated cooperation and collaboration from all quarters to enable a prerequisite environment for the promotion of human rights in the country.

The Prime Minister, in his message, said that the values he upheld since his political life to the ones that he imbibes, promotes and nurtured were based on the UN’s Charter and reassured that the government was active in achieving those goals in Universal Declaration on Human Rights.

Furthermore, the Head of the Government’s message read, “We reaffirm our commitment to make the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappeared Persons (CIEDP) more effective to resolve the conflict-era related cases and to ensure justice to the conflict victims by ensuring amendments in the legal and structural provisions.”
