IndiaThe Punjab Police's Saanjh Rahat Kendras, established as part of a broader community policing initiative, have provided crucial support to over 1,000 women in distress over the past two years. These centers offer services such as counseling, legal aid, crisis intervention, and rehabilitation to victims of domestic violence and other forms of abuse. The program began with two counselors in Mohali and has since expanded to four districts, handling 1,069 registered cases and screening 1,656 others. Specific examples include assisting a woman fleeing domestic assault and supporting a pregnant woman abandoned by her family. Additional programs like Jagriti and Women Help Desks have further enhanced efforts in women's safety and child protection.
