New Delhi, Thursday, June 09, 2011: The National Human Rights Commission has made public skeletal details of assets owned by its Chairman K G Balakrishnan showing there was no change in the moveable and immovable properties owned by him.

According to details of his assets given by the NHRC in response to an RTI application, Balakrishnan owns four properties in his name and one in his wife Nirmala Balakrishnan’s name. One property is a family one.

These assets have remained unchanged since he retired as Chief Justice of India and have been made public on Supreme Court’s web site by him, the NHRC said in response.

“The declaration of assets made by Justice K G Balkrishnan in the year 2009, as Chief Justice of India, stands for the year 2010. There is no addition or change in the position made therein,” the reply said.
