The Supreme Court raised serious concerns over the Delhi Commission for Women being non-functional, questioning the government about support for women in distress. The court highlighted that the DCW has no chairperson or staff and called for urgent action.
Swati Maliwal, the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chairperson, filed a complaint alleging that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal instructed his aide to assault her. This sparked controversy and the National Commission for Women (NCW) has vowed legal action and an inquiry. The outcome could impact political accountability and the safety of women activists in India.
