THE National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) on Wednesday sought an Action Taken Report from the Maharashtra DGP on the casting couch incidents in the Hindi film industry.
Acting on a petition filed by noted human rights activist and Supreme Court lawyer Radhakanta Tripathy, the NHRC passed the order and sought a detailed report from the Maharashtra DGP within eight weeks.
Talking exclusively to this newspaper, Tripathy cited several such instances and stated that the prevalence of the casting couch undermines the actors' dignity and fundamental human rights.
The petitioner said that due to the negligence and inaction of concerned authorities, the issue of casting couches remains untouched. The failure of the governments of Maharashtra and other states to act on this serious issue poses a serious question of the human rights of male and female actors in the film industry.
