A.Dear Client,
When you are experiencing such type of continuous threat to your safety and security including mental and physical harassment in-house from your parents, you can get in touch with a social worker or NGO who renders dedicated service to help you out of the crisis. If you are economically dependent on your family you may not have any choice other than to remain in the same house and continue with the ordeals of your life. As you are still a minor, your appeal for rehabilitation in an orphanage would not be considered in the absence of your natural and biological parents. Therefore, you need to arrange for an independent source of income to live your life on your own terms. You have the right to file a complaint against your family if they subjected you to domestic violence in the local police station under Sec.12 of the PWDV Act, 2005. Apart from this, you can make a complaint online (https://nhrc.nic.in/complaints/complaints/how-to-file-a-complaints) to the Chairperson, the National Human Rights Commission, New Delhi and the State Human Rights Commission along with the Chairperson, National Commission for Women and State Commission for Women who are empowered to investigate complaints related to issues faced by women/minor children by sending an email to [email protected] or filing an online complaint. Then are empowered to investigate complaints suo moto bringing the matter to the notice of district administration, like, DC, SP, DSP, DM/SDM, etc You can also seek the help of a social service organization or NGO like the Bachpan Bachao Andolan by contacting their Complaint Cell(24 X 7) helpline, CHILD HELPLINE NUMBER 1800 102 7222, GOVT. HELPLINE NUMBER 1098, Writing to the Chairperson, BBA through email to: [email protected].

A.Dear Client,

If you're considering leaving home and seeking refuge in an orphanage or another safe environment, it's important to prioritize your safety above all else. You have the right to live in a safe and nurturing environment where you are free from harm.

Reach out to trusted adults such as teachers, school counselors, or social workers who can offer support and guidance. They can help you explore your options and connect you with resources, including shelters or organizations that specialize in assisting young people facing abuse.

In some cases, it may be necessary to involve the authorities to ensure your safety and well-being. Child protective services or local law enforcement agencies can intervene to protect you from further harm and help you access the support you need.
