It aims at creating a safe and enabling environment for the women in such difficult situations, to enable them to overcome the adverse circumstances.

The States/UTs assess their requirement as per local needs and proposals are  approved  by  the  Programme  Approval  Board  (PAB)  after  discussion  with States/UTs.  Under the Scheme, financial assistance is provided for running of Shakti Sadan in rented premises.

The funds released during the last three financial years period with regard to Shakti Sadan is at Annexure-I. The District-wise number of functional Shakti Sadan in Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Madhya Pradesh is at Annexure II. State/UT-wise number of women benefiting under Shakti Sadan Scheme at present including Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Madhya Pradesh is at Annexure III .
