Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust to launch a national helpline for women, children in distress on Dec 10
NEW DELHI: In its bid to offer a panacea to the people who lost their livelihood after the demise of their kin due to coronavirus pandemic and otherwise, the Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust (National Human Rights Service Trust), a socially motivated organisation is going to roll out a national helpline to help the underprivileged, and helpless people of the society.
In a press conference held on Monday at the Press Club of India, New Delhi, Atal Bihari Bajaj, Founder, and President of Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust told the media persons that this helpline number will be launched on International Human Rights Day on December 10.
“This will be a toll-free number that will be available in the coming 15 days. In the meanwhile, the needy people can contact the numbers of the organization. Intellectual members of the trust coming from different regions and backgrounds will help the people. Whether it is to provide legal help to the people or to provide employment-oriented training, the legal cell of the organization will help the people in distress,” Bajaj added.
He said that in today’s era, cases of human rights abuses are on the rise. All such institutions including the government, administration are there to protect the fundamental rights of the people, but they are not concerned with the problems of the common people.
“Human rights in the country are accomplished by looking at the status of the people, whereas the rights provisioned in the constitution are equal for all. No one is small, big, rich, or poor in front of the constitution. But all this seems bookish because even today many people are not aware of their rights. The educated society is also not behind in violating and abusing human rights. Therefore, the Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust not only wants to reach the last person of the society ensuring them their rights but is ready to do everything possible to protect their interests.”
Atal Bihari Bajaj said that the corona epidemic has taken the lives of many people who are left suffering from many problems including the concern of earning a livelihood. The organization is going to give training to those people whose bread earners have died in their families. It is going to start giving vocational training to such women according to their skills. The organization will work towards making them self-reliant by providing training in employment-oriented courses like sewing, embroidery, typing, packing, management for many things.
Present on the occasion as Chief Guest, Dr. M. K. Vajpayee, Vice-Chancellor of Capital University was all praise for the Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust and its promoters. He said that the kind of work Atal Bihari Bajaj, and Chandra Prabha Bhatia their team had taken up for protecting the rights of the not-so-privileged people, was truly commendable.
Chandra Prabha Bhatia, President of the women’s wing of the Rashtriya Manvadhikar Seva Trust, said that in the last year, due to Corona, there have been many problems in the country.
“Our organization has always been helping needy women and children. We helped many women even during the Corona period. The organization has trained more than 1000 people in 20 states. She said that due to a lack of information about government schemes, people are not able to take advantage of them. In such a situation, the government efforts also go in vain. The organization is always ready to help such underprivileged, helpless people and women of society,” Mrs. Bhatia added.
She said that the central government has launched many schemes for the people suffering from the corona. But those plans are not reaching the ground. This also becomes a matter of human rights. In the last year, many such women came in contact who was helped. The most important thing is that many women are not even aware of the schemes. Therefore the Human Rights Service Trust will make people aware.
