The NHRC Tuesday condemned the killing of 40 CRPF personnel in the Pulwama terror attack, saying the "scourge of terrorism" is one of the major factors leading to violation of human rights in the society.

The rights panel also said, "It is expected that the state will take note of the supreme sacrifice made by the personnel of CRPF in maintaining the rule of law and creating an environment of peace and security in the country, and the aggrieved families would be suitably compensated."
