IHRC Activities in India: Honouring the Meritorious and Promoting Human Rights

Two significant events were organised by the International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) in the state of Uttar Pradesh, highlighting the importance of human rights protection and honouring individuals dedicated to serving their local communities.

Honouring Dr. Alexis Benjamin Lal

A prestigious IHRC Bronze Badge of Honour (BBH) award ceremony took place within the historic walls of B.G.M. Christian Inter College in Bhagalpur Deoria (established in 1911). Dr. Alexis Benjamin Lal, the principal of the institution and an official IHRC volunteer, received this distinction in recognition of his contribution to human rights and education. The certificate was presented by Bishop Dr. H.E. Samsher Khan, IHRC Peace Ambassador and IHRC Press Journalist. In his speech, Dr. Lal expressed gratitude for the honour and emphasised the significance of collaboration with IHRC in fostering a better world.

During the event, Bishop Khan extended his appreciation to Prof. h.c. Rafal Marcin Wasik, IHRC Secretary-General, Chairperson IHRC Group, Peacemaker, for his unwavering support and commitment to the organisation’s global mission.

Meeting in Mau District—Education and Social Integration

Another remarkable event took place in the Mau district of Uttar Pradesh, focusing on education and the promotion of human rights. The gathering was attended by Bishop Dr. H.E. Samsher Khan, IHRC Peace Ambassador and IHRC Press Journalist; Dr. Radha Krishnan (ZVC & IHRC Press Investigative Journalist in India); and official IHRC volunteers: Ramchandar, Pushpendra, Dharmendar, and many others.

During the event, attendees were educated on human rights, inspiring further efforts towards the protection of fundamental civil liberties. Some individuals were also honoured with certificates in recognition of their service to the local community. The meeting had a spiritual dimension, as participants prayed for peace, unity, and prosperity for their community and the nation.

Bishop Dr. H.E. Samsher Khan once again expressed his gratitude to Prof. h.c. Rafal Marcin Wasik, IHRC Secretary-General, Chairperson IHRC Group, Peacemaker, for his invaluable contribution to IHRC’s mission. He also highlighted the importance of the support provided by the IHRC team and all those involved in advancing the organisation’s objectives.

IHRC’s Commitment in India

Both events demonstrated the crucial role played by the International Human Rights Commission in promoting human rights protection, education, and social integration. Through the efforts of local leaders and IHRC volunteers, communities in India continue to benefit from support in education, social justice, and peacebuilding.

Activities such as awarding recognition for contributions and organising educational sessions remain essential elements of IHRC’s mission to raise awareness and mobilise societies worldwide.
