To prevent crime against women, Rajasthan police launched a special campaign called operation Awaaz.

The objective of Operation Awaaz was to bring awareness on crimes against women and work towards attaining justice.

Sakhi women with the encouragement of Hindustan Zinc Ltd. supported the local police and administration in spearheading this campaign “Operation Awaaj” across all our project locations.

In order to reduce crimes against women, gender equality and female safety were identified as top priority among SHG members. Community Federation leaders invited the local police to their meetings where through public dialogue, posters and other audio-visual means, the police shared information with members related to the crimes, laws and safety measures.
