In its statement, the NCW chief said that various types of complaints are being seen due to the lockdown. Women are not able to reach the police and they do not even want to go to the police because if the husband comes back from the police station then he will torture the woman again for a day or two, this is a different problem. Earlier women used to leave home and reach their parents, but now that option has also stopped.
