Rohatgi leaves for Geneva to attend UN human rights meet

Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi would project India's record on human rights protection at a global conference of the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva.
The top law officer, who left for Geneva tonight, said he will represent the country and "put forth India's record of protection of human rights in front of group of member nations in council."
He said he would be participating in the sessions of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of the UN Council.
The UPR is a process which involves a review of the human rights records of all UN member states.
It is a state-driven process, which gives an opportunity to each state to declare what action they have taken to improve the human rights situation in their countries and fulfil their human rights obligations.
