Nagpur: The Maharashtra State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) has issued a bailable warrant against Dr. Abhijeet Chaudhary, Municipal Commissioner of Nagpur, following his repeated failure to appear before the panel in a civic complaint.
The SHRC, led by Chairperson Justice A.M. Badar and member Justice Swapna Joshi, had taken suo motu cognizance of violations of human rights of North Nagpur residents caused by non-construction of roads, which had also led to frequent vehicle accidents.
The order noted that despite repeated notices, summons, and even a penalty of Rs 10,000 imposed on 16 October 2024, Dr. Chaudhary had failed to respond or present the stand of the Nagpur Municipal Corporation before the Commission.

The SHRC has directed the Nagpur Police Commissioner to serve the bailable warrant on Dr. Chaudhary.
