The decision was taken after a class 6 student of George High School of Bargarh district, Ajay Kumar Jena, was killed on Feb 16 after being beaten by a school teacher.
"The state government has decided to set up a child rights commission soon. The proposed commission would ensure the rights of children. The commission would register complaints related to child rights," said G.V.V. Sharma, secretary of the Women and Child Development Department.
