With unwavering commitment, the Commission serves as a beacon of hope, advocacy, and education in the ongoing pursuit of justice and dignity for all.

Initially named as ”Bonded Labor Freedom Front Pakistan” (BLFF) in 1985, this human rights organization was discouraged by the Pakistani government from being registered under this name, since the government was averse to admitting to the stigma that there indeed existed a bonded labor situation in Pakistan, despite world acclaimed notoriety for the carpet industry bonded labourer case of juvenile Iqbal Masih, who was murdered for being from the Christian religious minority.

In 2003, the organization was re-aligned and structured as the Human Liberation Commission Pakistan (HLCP), so as to cater to a wider victim base as well as not ruffle ‘forceful feathers’.

The HLCP’s human rights services do not discriminate race, religion, nationality, color, caste nor creed. HLCP has a Head Office in Lahore, the capital of Pakistan’s Punjab province, it has offices in all provinces of Pakistan and well-established sub offices in almost every city and district throughout Pakistan.
