Md. Moazzam has articulated about compensation scheme for women victims/survivors of sexual assaults/other crimes-2018, equal rights for all before the law and said that our constitution has discarded untouchability as well as provides ample space for citizens’ security from anti-social elements. Bhaiya Mukesh declared that the door of DLSA is always open for the people in need of legal support to get justice and safety measures for women-children are our top priority. He assured that DLSA will initiate in such cases and appealed the audience to be sensitive towards orphan, labourer or trafficked children as we all are responsible to make a safe society. Ms Kiran Kumari (law student) has focused upon girls’ education, their self-reliance and parent-child dialogue while Ms Neha Anzum (law student) has requested the women to send their children to school positively as this promotes socialization.
