Dharmendra Pradhan and Hardeep Singh Puri have been Ministers during the time.

Do read. Do share.

"The greatest challenge was not legal or technical. It was human. Behind every statistic was a child.

Our investigators were not simply analysing documents or verifying satellite images. They were repeatedly watching videos of children being killed, mutilated, stripped, tortured, and permanently disabled. Every case represented a life interrupted."
