Reportedly, following a tip-off, the district child protection task force had rescued the children and reunited them with their families after a medical examination.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Commission has observed that such rituals tantamount to violation of the human rights of the victim children. There is a need to sensitize the authorities as well as the parents of such children not to victimize the young ones in the name of blind faith.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Accordingly, it has issued a notice to the Govt. of Karnataka through its Chief Secretary calling for a detailed report in the matter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Commission would like to know whether, apart from Kalaburagi, this inhuman practice is prevalent in other districts of the State, if so, what action is being taken by the authorities. The report must include if the State Government has issued any guidelines with regard to the subject and status of its implementation. The response is expected within six weeks. The Chief Secretary of the State is expected to look into the matter personally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Issuing the notice, the Commission has observed that due to spread of COVID-19 virus, the social distancing is being maintained and it is not advisable to organize awareness camps etc. in the villages but through local authorities, with the help of media and various digital modes like video conferencing etc., the awareness with regard to the ill practice and its impact on the tender minds of the children is required to be created amongst the public at large.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">Commission has further observed that the ritual appears weird, unethical and cruel towards poor kids, who are being treated with indignity in the name of faith. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, when the medical science is progressing and very complicated surgeries are being conducted in the country itself, the young children with deformities required medical care and treatment and not such kind of inhuman practice, which not only subjects them to humiliation but may also cause a kind of inferiority complex. A child who would suffer such trauma will find it definitely very hard to overcome its adverse impact. It will be a nightmare for him\/her throughout life.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">According to the media report, some sources in the district administration had revealed that the poor children remained buried in the pits for the full duration of the solar eclipse in the rerun of a similar incident reported a decade ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Child Welfare Committee had reportedly intervened into the matter and its Chairman had stated that the rescued children were handed over to their parents after a counseling session. The news report also revealed that one Dr. S. Kamareddy, an orthopaedic surgeon from Kalaburagi town, had offered to perform the rectification surgeries on children, without any cost. The incident was reported earlier also sometime back.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>National Human Rights Commission<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>[Press Release dt.
