The State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) has filed a case against the exemption given to Ministers from the purview of the AI cameras installed by the Motor Vehicles department in the State.
The commission registered the case on the basis of a complaint given by rights activist Boban Mattumantha, who had written to the National Human Rights Commission pointing out the discrimination between the people and those in power.
“Exempting Ministers and other officials from the purview of the AI cameras erected for our road safety is sheer injustice and a challenge to the ordinary people. All citizens enjoy the same rights guaranteed by our laws and the Constitution,” Mr. Mattumantha said.
