NCW chairperson express displeasure over non formation of Rajasthan women's commission

National Commission for Women's (NCW) chairperson Rekha Sharma is in Jaipur to discuss the rising crimes against women in the state. In a special conversation with ETV Bharat, Rekha expressed displeasure over the non-formation of state women's commission in the state. She also highlighted the need for a state commission in order to ensure proper communication between NCW and Rajasthan government. She further said that the police work when a crime happens but the prevention of such crimes is the responsibility of the state government. "I believe the state government is lacking in doing so. My office is trying to make an appointment with the chief minister to discuss the concerns about such incidents. The state government has to work on social issues for women. There are several things that need to be monitored by the state government and not by the police. Police can only work on its level," she added. She held a meeting with Rajasthan Director-General of Police (DGP) M L Lather and discussed issues related to women safety in the state including the status of pending complaints. The NCW chief was briefed about the status of the complaints and various functions of the Rajasthan police.
