Lockdown: NCW receives 315 domestic
violence complaints in April
…With almost 57% of the women in India not having access to phones, their
options for registering complaints under the lockdown are now limited.”
“A girl being physically abused to get married and a man seeking protection for her
sister being beaten at her in-laws home …
… the lockdown has locked the abuser and the victim together.”
“I’m calling you from the ration shop as I’m
scared to talk from home. My husband lost
his factory job a month ago and is always
in the house. He beats me in front of the
kids, doesn’t help around [the house] and
flings the liquor bottle at me if I try to
reason things with him. I’m trapped in my
own house. Please help!” Photo credit: BCCL

END THE SILENCE!
Gender discrimination begins at conception
and continues through the lifetime.
We must anticipate the consequences of
children losing parents to the virus and being
open to trafficking, exploitation and forced
marriage. We know this and can prevent it
now.”Dr. Swarna Rajagopalan,
Managing Trustee, Prajnya
“ALL forms of gender-based violence increase
in a crisis. When we lockdown, we must
consider the vulnerability of children, women
and gender minorities to violence and abuse.
Violence against women isn’t a private concern.
It affects every single one of us at every stage of life.
Every year, Prajnya organises the 16 Days Campaign against Gender Violence.
Why?
To raise awareness of the different ways in
which women in particular are vulnerable
to violence, at home, at their place of
work, on campuses and in public spaces.
When?
25 November to 10 December
Where?
At multiple locations across Chennai
Our Goal
To Break
the
Silence on
Gender
Violence
Our Campaign Canvas Includes
Partnering with Chennai Police to discuss
digital security issues.
Groped? Pinched? Violated?
Crafting a visual protest against sexual
harassment.
