‘The appointed gender officer needs to overcome violence against women’

Panaji: Goa networks in gender generals have once again demanded the appointment of independent protection officers under the Domestic Violence Act, 2005, when the officers of the block construction were overloaded.
The network, which consists of representatives of organizations that deal with the problems of women and children, will place their demands before all political parties are included in their election manifest.
It also demanded the appointment of gender officials appointed to overcome violence against women, a one-roof crisis center and helboline.
“The office must be a nodal point to access justice, including assistance and links to services such as social and legal counseling,” said Sabina Martins representing the network.
This network is also looking for ran home settings managed by the state for women in each taluka for those who are thrown out of their homes or who want to get out of violent houses.
“The house of shelter must have room to accommodate women’s items in the intervention settlement period.
In addition, the shelter is open to women, at least in big cities such as Vasco, Mapapa, Ponda and Margao, with the right setting for the waiting room at Night for women and children near the train station and free drop services for women and girls at night when public transportation is not available, “he said further.
The network has demanded quarterly police meetings, NGOs, and legal entities to overcome hours of difficulties that are difficult to register complaints and understanding and carry out medical examinations along with regular data collection in cases of domestic and sexual violence.
These they say will help frame the policy to overcome the causes of violence and prepare action plans.
“Procedure counselors must be posted in the police station, hospitals and primary health care centers to provide social and legal counseling.
Training programs must be carried out regularly for the development of the capacity of all officers and personnel to deal with sensitive and effectively with cases of domestic violence and sexual violence, “said Martins.
By stating that crime fireplaces against women are often not registered or nominally registered without effective investigations and assistance from protection officers, residence for those in trouble and direct social security support is not given to the victims.
The network also said that the State Commission’s report for women and children’s protection must be presented regularly in the Assembly.
It is said that the independence of human rights institutions is confirmed through the process of corresponding transparent selection and financial allocation.
