The panel issued the notice asking the state Chief Secretary to submit the report within four weeks in connection with the deaths of two women and a child in Jalpaiguri tea estate earlier this month.
The action came following NHRC taking cognisance of a media report regarding alleged starvation deaths in the tea estate.
The NHRC spokesperson said the media report alleged that the workers in the tea estate were yet to get 62-week ration and two-month wages.
