Empowering Marginalized Women: A Commitment to Justice


 Empowering Marginalized Women: A Commitment to Justice

In our ongoing commitment to supporting marginalized and vulnerable groups, PVCHR has been at the forefront of human rights advocacy in Varanasi and surrounding regions. One of our key initiatives is the Mahila Sahayata Prakoshth (Women Assistance Cell), an essential effort in combating violence, discrimination, and injustice against women.

Recently, we revisited a key piece of our history—an identification card from 2002 that represents the direct involvement of our founder, Lenin Raghuvanshi, in this initiative. As seen in this ID, Lenin, serving as a key functionary of the Mahila Sahayata Prakoshth under the supervision of senior police officials, reflects our close cooperation with government bodies to ensure the protection and empowerment of women.

The Mahila Sahayata Prakoshth serves as a beacon of hope for countless women who have experienced domestic violence, gender discrimination, and societal neglect. Working hand-in-hand with law enforcement agencies, PVCHR aims to provide quick responses, legal assistance, and rehabilitation support for women in need. It is through partnerships like these, with local authorities and dedicated individuals, that we can create safe spaces for women to reclaim their dignity and rights.

This document from 2002 stands as a testament to our long-standing dedication to social justice, gender equality, and human rights. It reflects our consistent and passionate advocacy that continues to this day, not just in words but in actions that bring real change to communities.

At PVCHR, we believe in building a future where women are not just survivors but leaders, empowered to make decisions for their own lives and those of their communities. Our continued engagement with government bodies, coupled with our grassroots activism, remains central to our mission of creating a just and equitable society for all.

Join us in our journey towards empowering marginalized women and ensuring that human rights remain at the heart of all societal progress.
