Current Affairs - Important Days - Discussion

The International Day for the Right to Truth is observed on March 24 each year to emphasize justice, transparency, and respect for human dignity. This day commemorates Archbishop Óscar Arnulfo Romero, who was assassinated on March 24, 1980, for speaking out against human rights abuses. It highlights the importance of ensuring that victims and their families have access to accurate information about violations such as torture, disappearances, and killings. The United Nations established this observance to promote awareness, strengthen justice systems, and honor those who have courageously defended human rights across the world.
