Under the collaboration, Majlis will conduct training programmes for &lsquo;Master Kayda Sathis&rsquo; across all 36 districts of the state. Kayda Sathis are community-based legal volunteers drawn from SHGs who provide awareness and support to women on issues such as domestic violence, child sexual abuse, and workplace sexual harassment.
As part of the initiative, efforts will also be made to strengthen institutional linkages between these volunteers and key stakeholders, including courts, police, protection officers and child welfare committees.
