# What are the key differences between the National Green Tribunal and the National Human Rights Commission?

Both institutions are statutory bodies established by Parliament, yet their mandates seem quite distinct. I'm trying to map out their respective jurisdictions—one focuses on environmental disputes, the other on fundamental rights. Could someone break down their composition, powers of enforcement, and the kinds of cases they typically handle?
