The National Commission for Women (NCW) has set up a dedicated round-the-clock (24X7) helpline number and a website for women in distress. The round-the-clock helpline provides online support to women affected by violence or mental stress through referral by linking them with appropriate authorities such as police, health services, District Legal Service Authority. Counselling services and information about women related programmes are also provided across the country through a single uniform number. The task force managing this project is a team of highly qualified personnel, who are providing emergency response to women in distress.
