HRCP has released its annual flagship report on the state of human rights in Pakistan in 2019. The report looks at the human rights record in Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Islamabad, AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan.

"This year, for the first time, HRCP’s annual report on the state of human rights in Pakistan reflects the realities of provincial autonomy and federalism as enshrined in the Constitution of Pakistan. Each federating unit and the Islamabad Capital Territory have been given their own standalone section, followed by chapters on the administered territories of Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The chapters have been ordered according to the strength of population in each province, followed by the administered territories as per their legal status." [ . . . ]
