A statutory body (1992 Act) investigating issues related to women’s rights, safety, and representation in various sectors. The NCW reviews laws, recommends legislative reforms, and handles complaints of gender-based discrimination or violence. It may conduct inspections in prisons, women’s shelters, and workplaces to ensure compliance with protective legislation (e.g., Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act). Though it lacks judicial powers, NCW’s recommendations can influence policy changes. Critics seek stronger enforcement mechanisms and faster case resolutions. Nonetheless, NCW stands as a crucial advocacy platform, reflecting India’s push toward gender justice within constitutional and legal frameworks.
