Main Body

Falls short of Objectives:
1Low conviction rate
2Toothless bodies such as NPCR
3Lack of civil society collaboration
4Delays in cases and injustice

6Increasing crime against children (NCRB)
Way forward:
1Setting up of online complaint redressal mechanism & SHEBox for women
2Special courts should be setup for faster processing of cases by all states.
3Civil society collaboration & Socony Foundation & Mukti Vahini by Saloor Satyarth
4Periodic social audit and legislative impact assessment (2nd ARC)
5The POCSO Act's punishment should be increased.
The Act has largely been a step in the right direction but requires a proper application and review mechanism for true impact.
