Amid allegations of the lack of action by the National Commission for Women on incidents of crimes against women in Manipur, a Parliamentary Committee has recommended that the NCW should take appropriate measures to resolve all complaints it receives within a definite period of time by streamlining the procedures in coordination with the concerned agencies.
The Committee on Empowerment of Women, headed by BJP MP Heena Gavit, recommended that both the Ministry of Women and Child Development and National Commission for Women should look into the procedures being adopted by the NCW for resolving complaints.
This should be done by streamlining the procedures, putting in place an efficient work force and in coordination with the concerned agencies, said the report titled “Working of National Commission for Women and State Commissions for Women”.
