Uttarakhand Anti-Conversion Bill — “Punitive Laws Cannot Replace Justice Reforms”

Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate Supreme Court & Chairman, Indian National Human Rights Protection Council

New Delhi, 19 August 2025 — The Government of Uttarakhand has introduced the Freedom of Religion (Amendment) Bill, 2025, proposing harsher punishments for alleged forced religious conversions, including life imprisonment. The Bill follows the template of Uttar Pradesh’s stringent law and allows non-bailable offences, arrest without warrant, and property seizure.

Responding to this move, Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate Supreme Court of India and Chairman of the Indian National Human Rights Protection Council, issued a strong statement:

> “While the focus is being shifted to religious conversion laws, India’s real justice crisis remains unresolved — crores of criminal cases pending in courts, lakhs of undertrials languishing without trial, and severe shortages in judge strength. The nation must prioritize judicial capacity, bail reforms, prison decongestion, and speedy trials over introducing more punitive statutes. Longer sentences cannot substitute systemic reforms.”

Dr. Raju emphasized that India’s prisons are bursting at over 130% occupancy, with some states crossing 250–400% overcrowding levels, and undertrials make up nearly 76% of inmates. “This is not just a legal issue, but a serious human rights crisis,” he added.

Key Concerns Raised by Dr. Raju:

Judicial Vacancies: Thousands of judge posts remain unfilled; the ratio of judges to population is among the lowest globally.

Undertrial Crisis: Lakhs of undertrials remain in jail for years without conviction, violating the constitutional guarantee of Article 21 (Right to Life & Liberty).

Prison Overcrowding: Many prisons operate at dangerous levels of congestion, undermining rehabilitation and basic human dignity.

Bail Reforms: Despite repeated Supreme Court directions, arbitrary denial of bail keeps the poor behind bars.

Access to Justice: Legal aid remains weak, leaving vulnerable communities unrepresented.

The Way Forward

Dr. Raju urged governments to:

1. Fill judicial vacancies on a war footing.

2. Strengthen fast-track courts and digital caseflow management.

3. Strictly enforce Supreme Court guidelines on bail.

4. Activate Undertrial Review Committees across states.

5. Invest in legal aid, prison reform, and human rights protections.

“Justice delayed is justice denied. Instead of expanding prisons with new convicts, we must reduce pendency, strengthen courts, and uphold the dignity of every citizen.” — Dr. Anthony Raju

We Demand Similar Hard Action by MCD to Curb Illegal Waste Dumping – Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate Supreme Court & Global Environmentalist

New Delhi, August 17, 2025 —

Welcoming the bold decision by the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) to deploy armed security personnel and police support to curb illegal waste dumping, Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate Supreme Court, Chairman of the All India Council of Human Rights, Liberties and Social Justice (AICHLS), and Global Environmentalist, has called upon the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) to immediately replicate these measures in the national capital.

The Gurugram model involves strict coordination between civic authorities and police, impounding vehicles engaged in illegal dumping, and ensuring criminal proceedings against violators. According to Dr. Raju, this represents a “no-nonsense approach to urban environmental protection” and sets an example for other metropolitan cities.

Dr. Anthony Raju said:

“The menace of illegal waste dumping is as grave in Delhi as in Gurugram. The MCD must learn from this decisive action and implement similar strict measures without delay. Citizens of Delhi deserve a clean and safe environment. Strong enforcement is the only deterrent against habitual violators.”

He further emphasized that Delhi, being the capital of India, must lead by example in enforcing environmental discipline and adopting zero tolerance towards pollution and illegal dumping.

Key Demands by Dr. Anthony Raju

1. Deployment of enforcement squads with armed personnel in Delhi, on the lines of MCG.

2. Strict impounding of vehicles engaged in waste dumping.

3. Immediate criminal proceedings against habitual offenders.

4. Public awareness and community participation to ensure sustainable waste management.

5. Transparency in civic enforcement to restore public confidence in MCD’s governance.

सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने POCSO मामले में पिता की उम्रकैद बरकरार रखी, डॉ. एंथनी राजू ने फैसले को सराहा

तारीख: 11 अगस्त 2025 | स्थान: नई दिल्ली

मुख्य खबर:

माननीय सुप्रीम कोर्ट ऑफ इंडिया ने नाबालिग बेटी से यौन शोषण के दोषी एक पिता की उम्रकैद की सजा बरकरार रखते हुए इसे “परिवारिक विश्वास को चकनाचूर करने वाला अनाचारजन्य अपराध” करार दिया। अदालत ने कहा कि जब एक पिता – जो ढाल, मार्गदर्शक और सुरक्षा का प्रतीक होना चाहिए – स्वयं अपराधी बन जाता है, तो यह पीड़िता की मानसिक और भावनात्मक सुरक्षा को हमेशा के लिए तोड़ देता है।

डॉ. एंथनी राजू, एडवोकेट, सुप्रीम कोर्ट, चेयरमैन – ऑल इंडिया काउंसिल ऑफ ह्यूमन राइट्स, लिबर्टीज एंड सोशल जस्टिस, और POCSO मामलों के प्रमुख विशेषज्ञ ने कहा – “यह फैसला अत्यंत सराहनीय और आवश्यक है, ताकि समाज में ऐसे अपराधों के खिलाफ मजबूत निवारक संदेश जाए।”

उन्होंने कहा कि POCSO अधिनियम के प्रावधानों को शून्य सहनशीलता के साथ लागू करना आवश्यक है, जिससे बच्चों की सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित हो, न्याय प्रणाली पर भरोसा कायम रहे और यह स्पष्ट हो जाए कि कानून के सामने कोई भी व्यक्ति – चाहे परिवार के भीतर हो – अपराध से बच नहीं सकता।

समाज के लिए संदेश:

यह फैसला न केवल एक कानूनी मिसाल है, बल्कि यह भी याद दिलाता है कि बच्चों की सुरक्षा सामूहिक जिम्मेदारी है और अदालतें पीड़ितों के साथ हमेशा खड़ी रहेंगी।

SUPREME COURT LANDMARK JUDGMENT (2025)

“Victim’s Credible Testimony Alone Is Sufficient for Conviction in Rape Cases — Even Without External Injuries or Medical Evidence”

Case Summary:

In [State vs. Accused – Name Withheld], the Supreme Court of India upheld the conviction of a man accused of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl. The accused challenged his conviction on the ground that no external injuries were found on the victim and medical evidence was lacking.

However, the Hon’ble Supreme Court, in a bench led by Justice Anjaria, ruled that the consistent, natural, and credible testimony of the minor victim was sufficient in itself to uphold the conviction.

The Court stated unequivocally that:

Corroborative medical evidence is not a legal necessity if the testimony is trustworthy.

Mere absence of injuries does not undermine the credibility of a rape victim.

The Indian Evidence Act does not demand corroboration where the statement of the prosecutrix is found to be reliable.

Legal Expert Analysis by Dr. Anthony Raju

Advocate, Supreme Court of India

Chairman – Indian National Human Rights Protection Council

Most Trusted Criminal Advocate | POCSO & False FIR Expert

> “This Supreme Court judgment is a powerful step forward in ensuring that justice is not denied to survivors due to procedural loopholes or absence of physical signs.

In rape cases—especially involving minors—delayed reporting, fear, and trauma often result in minimal or no physical injury. Courts must recognize that emotional scars run deeper than physical wounds.

As one of the most experienced criminal lawyers at the Supreme Court, I stand by the principle that a victim’s voice, when consistent and unshaken, holds full legal weight. This verdict discourages malicious defense tactics that exploit medical technicalities and reaffirms India's faith in victim-centric justice.

The ruling will strengthen prosecution in genuine cases while continuing to uphold the rule of law in preventing false implications.”

Supreme Court: Section 35 BNSS Notices Must Be Served Physically – WhatsApp or Electronic Modes Not Valid 

In a landmark judgment, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has ruled that notices under Section 35 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023 must be served in physical form only. The use of WhatsApp or other electronic communication methods does not satisfy the legal mandate under the law.

???? What is Section 35 BNSS?

Section 35 outlines the preconditions and procedure for arrest by the Investigating Agency, especially in cases without a warrant. It ensures that an individual is given a fair opportunity to appear and cooperate with the investigation before any coercive action is taken

Strong Review and Legal Appreciation of the Hon’ble Supreme Court’s Landmark Judgment on Section 35 of BNSS, 2023

By Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate, Supreme Court of India

Chairman, Indian National Human Rights Protection Council

I respectfully extend my sincere appreciation and heartfelt admiration to the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India for its recent and landmark ruling regarding Section 35 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023.

The Court has rightly held that notices issued under Section 35 must be served physically, and that service through electronic means such as WhatsApp or other digital platforms cannot be considered legally valid.

This judgment is a bold affirmation of constitutional safeguards, especially those under Article 21, which guarantees every citizen the fundamental right to life and personal liberty. By emphasizing the importance of physical service of notice prior to arrest, the Supreme Court has reestablished the core principles of fairness, transparency, and due process in criminal jurisprudence.

It sends a clear message that law enforcement authorities cannot bypass legal procedures under the guise of convenience or technology. Every accused person is entitled to know, understand, and respond to legal action through a process that is clear, accountable, and verifiable.

This verdict is a vital step in protecting the dignity and liberty of individuals, preventing arbitrary arrests, and promoting a people-centric justice system rooted in the rule of law.

On behalf of the Indian National Human Rights Protection Council, I commend the Hon’ble Supreme Court for standing strong in defense of human rights and legal ethics. This judgment will empower advocates, rights defenders, and the general public alike, reinforcing trust in the legal system.

We urge all stakeholders, including law enforcement agencies and legal practitioners, to uphold the true spirit of this ruling and ensure its uniform implementation across the country.

Shri Shibu Soren – The True Leader of Humanity

Heartfelt Condolences by Dr. Anthony Raju

Advocate, Supreme Court of India

Chairman – All India Council of Human Rights, Liberties and Social Justice

"The passing of Shri Shibu Soren, a towering figure in Indian politics and a true icon of tribal rights and social justice, is an irreparable loss to the nation.

I had the honour of meeting him during the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha movement, where his passion for justice, grassroots empowerment, and the upliftment of the marginalized left a deep impact on me.

He was not just a political leader—he was a symbol of resistance, resilience, and righteousness.

His commitment to human rights and the tribal community remains a guiding light for us all.

I consider him my inspiration and role model in the human rights movement.

May his soul rest in eternal peace."

Kerala Nuns Granted Bail in Chhattisgarh ‘Conversion and Trafficking’ Case
Issued by: All India Council of Human Rights, Liberties and Social Justice (AICHLS)
Led by: Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate, Supreme Court of India
*Chairman – AICHLS | Date: 1 August 2025

In a notable development, the local court in Chhattisgarh has granted bail to Sisters Preeti Marry and Vandana Francis—Catholic nuns from Kerala—and co-accused Sukhman Mandavi, who were arrested last Friday at Durg railway station. They were falsely implicated in a case filed under the Chhattisgarh Freedom of Religion Act and the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act, based on a complaint by a local Bajrang Dal worker.

The court, after reviewing the available facts, observed that continued judicial custody was unwarranted.
Their advocate, Mr. Amrito Das, stated:

“The learned judge rightly observed there was no legal basis to prolong their detention and granted them bail.”

Questionable FIR and Witness Intimidation
One of the three tribal women allegedly involved has gone on record stating she was threatened and physically coerced by individuals linked to a right-wing organization to falsely accuse the nuns of conversion and trafficking. She also alleged that the FIR was influenced by statements made by members of the Bajrang Dal and not by free testimony.

AICHLS Calls for Accountability
Under the leadership of Dr. Anthony Raju, the All India Council of Human Rights strongly condemns the increasing misuse of legal provisions to target minority communities, missionaries, and women working in grassroots service. The Council views this bail order as a partial restoration of legal balance but insists that:

The misuse of the Freedom of Religion law must be legally challenged.
There should be independent investigation into the threats faced by the tribal women.
Law enforcement must be held accountable for acting on politically motivated complaints without proper evidence.

Our Next Legal and Advocacy Steps
AICHLS will be submitting complaints to the National Human Rights Commission and National Commission for Women regarding the procedural lapses and harassment.
A dedicated legal monitoring team has been assigned to track the case progress.
A fact-finding report is under preparation and will be shared with national and international human rights organizations.

Statement by Dr. Anthony Raju
“This is not just a legal issue—it’s a matter of fundamental rights, religious freedom, and protection of women in service. We stand with the innocent and demand that truth prevails over propaganda. No one should be criminalized for their faith, compassion, or humanitarian work.”

Is the National Human Rights Commission of India a "Toothless Tiger"?
Despite being established as the apex statutory body for the protection and promotion of human rights in India, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has repeatedly come under sharp criticism from civil society, human rights defenders, and legal experts. Allegations of ineffectiveness, lack of enforcement power, political bias, and compromised independence have severely dented public faith in this crucial institution.

⚖️ Key Criticisms of NHRC
1. Lack of Enforcement Powers
The NHRC can only make recommendations—these are not legally binding. Government departments and institutions are not obligated to act upon them, which often leads to acknowledgment without accountability.

2. Dependence on Accused Agencies
Investigations are commonly carried out by the same police or government agencies that are the subject of complaints. This creates a serious conflict of interest and undermines the impartiality and credibility of the outcomes.

3. Restricted Jurisdiction in Armed Forces Cases
The NHRC has severely limited authority when it comes to alleged human rights violations by the armed forces. It can only seek reports from the Ministry of Defence, without any power to initiate independent inquiries.

4. Recommendations Are Ignored
There are numerous instances where NHRC's findings and suggestions have been disregarded or only partially implemented by both central and state governments.

5. Politicized Appointments
The appointment process of NHRC members has come under scrutiny for being politically influenced, with minimal transparency and insufficient representation of civil society voices, compromising the body’s independence.

6. "Toothless Tiger" Tag by Judiciary
The Delhi High Court has rightly described the NHRC as a "toothless tiger", due to its inability to enforce its own directives or to take punitive action against violators.

7. Loss of Global Credibility
In a significant blow to its international standing, the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI) has downgraded NHRC’s accreditation from "A" to "B", citing serious concerns over its independence, effectiveness, and transparency.

???? Expert Comment: Dr. Anthony Raju
Advocate, Supreme Court of India | Chairman – AICHLS

"The promise of NHRC lies in its founding ideals, but its performance has unfortunately been plagued by systemic limitations and political interference. When the protector of rights becomes a mere spectator, the very soul of justice is compromised. The people of India deserve an empowered, independent, and fearless human rights watchdog—not one that functions as a ceremonial entity. Reforms are not just desirable—they are urgently necessary."

????️ What Needs to Change?
Grant binding powers to the NHRC for its recommendations.
Ensure independent investigative machinery, separate from accused government agencies.
Expand jurisdiction over armed forces violations.
Make the appointment process transparent and inclusive of civil society.
Restore global confidence by aligning with international human rights standards.

Section 509 IPC | Mere Harassment Or Abuse At Workplace Does Not Amount To Outraging Modesty: Calcutta High Court

In a significant judgment, the Calcutta High Court has clarified the scope of Section 509 of the Indian Penal Code, observing that mere harassment or verbal abuse at the workplace, without any specific act or gesture aimed at outraging a woman’s modesty, does not amount to an offence under Section 509 IPC.

Justice Shampa Sarkar, while quashing proceedings under Section 509 IPC, held that the legal threshold for “outraging the modesty of a woman” requires more than general rude or disrespectful behavior—there must be clear, intentional, and targeted acts that visibly violate a woman’s sense of dignity or modesty.

Key Observations:
A workplace dispute, even if aggressive or hostile, does not automatically translate into a criminal act under Section 509 unless there is evidence of a specific insult directed toward the woman’s modesty.
The Court emphasized the need to avoid criminalizing workplace disagreements unless the conduct crosses the threshold into gender-based obscenity, lewdness, or sexual aggression.
???? Expert View: Dr. Anthony Raju, Advocate Supreme Court & Chairman, Indian National Human Rights Protection Council
"This judgment introduces a necessary legal clarity. While we must ensure that women's dignity is fiercely protected, it is equally essential to prevent misuse of provisions meant for their protection. Section 509 IPC has a very specific scope—it targets intentional acts meant to insult the modesty of a woman. Every unpleasant or heated workplace exchange cannot and should not be prosecuted under this section."
"Such judicial guidance helps balance gender justice with fair legal process and prevents the dilution of genuine cases amid false or exaggerated complaints."
Dr. Raju reiterated the importance of strengthening Internal Complaints Committees (ICCs) under the POSH Act to address workplace grievances while ensuring misuse of criminal law is curbed through legal education and awareness.

False POCSO Cases in India: Legal Misuse, Consequences & Remedies

Top Criminal and Bail Expert Dr. Anthony Raju Explains Legal Protections Against False Allegations

The Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012 was enacted to safeguard children against sexual abuse, exploitation, and harassment. While it is a vital child protection law, its misuse has become a serious concern—wherein false cases are filed with malicious intent, often to harass, extort, or settle personal scores.

Commonly Misused Sections in False POCSO Cases:

Section 3 & 4: Penetrative sexual assault

Section 7 & 8: Sexual assault (non-penetrative)

Section 9 & 10: Aggravated sexual assault

Section 11 & 12: Sexual harassment of children

Consequences of False Allegations:

Ruined reputation, career, and social standing of the accused

Years of trauma due to arrest, trial, and media scrutiny

Misuse dilutes the seriousness of genuine child abuse cases

Legal Remedies for False POCSO Accusations:

Section 482 CrPC / Section 271 BNSS, 2023: Power of High Court to quash false FIRs

Section 22 of POCSO Act: Punishment for false complaint or false information

IPC Sections 182, 211: False information with intent to cause injury

Right to Compensation under Law Commission/SC guidelines for wrongful prosecution

Filing counter FIR against the complainant

Expert Opinion by Dr. Anthony Raju:

“False POCSO cases are a serious abuse of protective law and can destroy innocent lives. Legal awareness and vigilance by the judiciary are essential to preserve justice and uphold the spirit of child protection laws.”
