Behrampore, April 25 :    Behrampore, April 25:  Murshidabad district administration and police have joined hands with a voluntary organisation to set up grievance cells exclusively for women, in the first of their kind in the state. In the past eight months, Chandradip Mahila Ashraya - an organisation run by women - has helped open, in 26 police stations in the district, cells to deal with complaints from women. This has led to a sharp decline in crime against women in the district, particularly harassment cases and those related to dowry. The organisation's work has also led to a change in the work culture in police stations. Murshidabad superintendent of police Rajesh Kumar is all praise for the voluntary organisation's efforts. 'Earlier, I had to hear the complaints of many hapless women every day. Now the number of complaints has come down sharply because of the prompt action taken by the special cell,' Kumar said. 'Women used to complain that their cases were not registered,' he added. However, the number of such complaints has also sharply reduced and police officers are directing women to drop their complaints in special complaint boxes.
