A State Human Rights Commission can inquire into violation of human rights only in respect of subjects mentioned in the:-

  • A.Union List (List I) and State List (List II)
  • B.State List (List II) and Concurrent List (List III)
  • C.Union List (List I) and Concurrent List (List III)
  • D.Union List (List I), State List (List II) and Concurrent List (List III)

Answer: B

A State Human Rights Commission can inquire only into subjects in the State List (List II) and Concurrent List (List III).

Under the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993, a State Commission may inquire into violations of human rights relating to matters in the State List and the Concurrent List of the Seventh Schedule.

Matters in the Union List fall to the National Human Rights Commission, so every option including List I is wrong for a State Commission.
