In the context of ICCPR, the doctrine of the non-derogable rights is very significant in its nature keeping in view the concept of the civil and political rights. Further these tights are still available even during the time of public emergency which may threaten the life of the state parties. So the role of those bodies which have manifesto to ensure the implementation of such rights is very significant. In such scenario there is an issue that the states parties are bound to fulfill its obligations during that time of public emergency by fulfilling the conditions envisaged in the Article 4 of ICCPR. Although there are monitoring mechanism is there in the shape of the treaty bodies for the ensuring the implementation of the non-derogable rights. But not with standing that there is dire need of some cogent and effective mechanism to monitor and supervise its execution by internationally recognized bodies which are called treaty bodies in terms of ensuring its implementation in letter and spirit as per the scheme and objective of the International covenant on civil and political rights 1966.
