NEW DELHI: NHRC has issued a notice to railways on a complaint alleging that “only halal-processed meat” is served in non-vegetarian meals which creates an “unfair discrimination” and amounts to “violations of human rights”.It is further alleged in the complaint that the practice in trains excludes people from Hindu Dalit communities, who traditionally work in the meat trade and therefore harms their livelihood rights and equal opportunities.The complainant has also alleged that Hindu and Sikh passengers do not get food options that match their religious beliefs, affecting their freedom of choice.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos“Being Examined”: MEA On Dhaka’S Request To Extradite Sheikh Hasina”There Was No Fear on His Face”: Survivor Recounts Trauma of Mumbai 26/11 AttacksPakistan On Edge As Imran Khan’s Sisters Assaulted At Jail And Social Media Fuels Death Speculation’Spur Of The Moment’: Former CJI Gavai Reacts To Shoe-Attack Attempt, Reveals Why He Took No Action’No Amount of Denial’ Will Change Arunachal’s Status: India’s BOLD Response To China Over Border Row’No Moral Standing’: India Slams Pakistan’s Rant On Ayodhya Event, Calls Out Bigotry And RepressionKhawaja Asif Admits Pakistan Can’t Trust Taliban As Deadly Border Strikes Trigger New FlashpointFormer CJI B.R.
