Fund crisis forces one-stop centres to trim operations in Kerala

New Indian Express  

KOZHIKODE: One-stop centres, established under the Nirbhaya scheme to provide crucial assistance to women and children facing violence, have been compelled to trim their operations due to lack of funding from the Union government. Despite constraints, the centres continued to provide essential support such as food, shelter, counselling, and legal aid to survivors, often drawing on the resources of staff members. The crisis is part of a broader issue affecting OSCs in Kerala, with reports of staff quitting due to delayed salaries and mental stress further straining the remaining employees. While other states ensure higher salaries and better working conditions for OSC staff, Kerala’s workers remain underpaid and unpaid.
