## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF WOMEN AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT (SHRIMATI SMRITI ZUBIN IRANI)

(a) to (d) The One Stop Centre (OSC) scheme has been implemented with effect from 1 st April 2015 to provide integrated support and assistance to women affected by violence and in distress. Under the newly launched Mission Shakti, which is an umbrella scheme for the safety, security and empowerment of women for implementation  during the 15 th Finance  Commission  Period   2021-22  to  2025-26,  OSC  has  been  included  as  a component of 'Sambal' sub-scheme.  The OSCs function under the overall supervision and  management  of  State  Governments/  District  Authorities.  However,  the  Ministry provides  100%  grant-in-aid  to  Districts  for  recurring  and  non-recurring  expenditure  as well  as  for  construction  of  OSCs  (in  respect  of  those  which  have  been  approved  for construction).

All the 24 OSCs approved for 24 Districts of Jharkhand are functional, including one in Ranchi. These centres have assisted over 2000 women in the State till June 2022.  The number of women assisted through the OSCs and the amount released for the operation of  OSCs to the State of Jharkhand, including Ranchi district, during the last one year, district-wise is at Annexure .
