If you are a silent witness to a case of domestic violence, you are as guilty as the one indulging in it, says actor Sandhya Mridul in a newly-released video campaign that urges bystanders to be as vigilant as survivors in seeking help by calling the National Helpline for Domestic Violence.
While the main intention behind the lockdown was to protect people from getting exposed to the deadly virus, statistics have shown that women have ended up becoming more vulnerable to abuse -- the National Commission for Women (NCW) recently reported 587 complaints on their helpline number and online portal since the lockdown kicked into effect in March in India.
