Odisha Congress launches Nari Nyay Scheme to support women’s safety and justice

Odisha Congress has introduced the Nari Nyay scheme, a new and focused effort dedicated to protecting women and making sure justice is served in cases of violence or harassment. Often compared to the government’s Shakti scheme, this program aims to make complaint filing and grievance handling easier for women across Odisha. Let’s look into how this new program works and what it means for women’s safety and support.

Understanding the Nari Nyay Scheme

Started by the Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (OPCC), the Nari Nyay scheme aims to fight violence against women across the state. It provides a way for women to share their problems confidently while getting timely help. The scheme especially focuses on domestic violence, harassment, and abuse, giving a voice to those who might otherwise feel ignored or helpless.

Features of the Nari Nyay Scheme

A key part of the scheme is the new 24-hour Women’s Grievance Redressal Cell at Congress Bhawan. This cell works round the clock to register complaints and offer assistance. Victims can use these services for quick help and intervention:

• Easy complaint filing through email at womencellodishpcc@gmail.com
• Use of QR code technology to scan and go directly to the complaint portal

This simple process helps more women come forward without fear or delay.

How to File a Complaint Under Nari Nyay

If you or someone you know faces violence or harassment, here’s an easy step-by-step guide to file a complaint under Nari Nyay:

1. Write an email explaining your issue and send it to womencellodishpcc@gmail.com.
2. Or, scan the QR code available at Congress Bhawan or public spots to open the complaint portal directly on your phone.
3. Fill in the needed details and submit your complaint online.
4. Wait for a reply from the grievance cell team, who will contact you for further help.

Nari Nyay vs Shakti Scheme: A Comparison

Both the Nari Nyay and the government’s Shakti scheme focus on women’s safety, but their ways and management are quite different. While Shakti is a government-run campaign with larger state support, Nari Nyay is a more personal platform run by the Odisha Congress. It focuses on reaching out directly, providing legal help, and building closer connections with affected women.

Role of Odisha Congress in Women’s Justice

By starting this scheme, Odisha Congress promises not only to take complaints but also to actively help victims with quick legal support. OPCC President Bhakta Das assures victims that support will go beyond just registering complaints — the party will follow up with victims directly and push authorities to act fast and firmly.

Expected Effect on Women’s Safety in Odisha

Thanks to immediate access through email and QR codes, women can now report abuse more easily without dealing with red tape. The scheme strengthens support by making sure no complaint is ignored, raising both awareness and response across the state.

Women in Odisha now have more ways to seek justice and safety through Nari Nyay, a promising step toward creating a safer and more supportive environment. Your voice can be the start of change — this platform is here to make sure you are heard and helped.
