Shakti Sadans: Rehabilitation and Relief Centres: As part of the Samarthya vertical under Mission Shakti, Shakti Sadans focus on providing relief and rehabilitation services for women in distress, especially victims of trafficking. The initiative aims to create a secure and empowering environment to help women overcome challenging situations.

Conclusion: Initiatives like One Stop Centres and Shakti Sadans are creating a robust framework for the protection and assistance of women. These programs are pivotal in rehabilitating women affected by violence and crisis, contributing significantly to Mission Shakti’s goal of empowering women across the country.
