Background
Overview
OSCs address critical issues of gender-based violence, women's safety, and social justice, demonstrating government intervention and inter-agency coordination in welfare scheme implementation. This is highly relevant for GS1 (Social Issues) and GS2 (Governance, Welfare Schemes).
One Stop Centres (OSCs) are a key initiative under the Indian government's welfare programs for women, designed to provide integrated support and assistance to women affected by violence and those in distress. They serve as a crucial mechanism for ensuring immediate access to various essential services under a single roof.
