In the present scenario, violence and crimes against women all over the world is on the rise. This violence and crimes against women is commonly refer to as “Offenses against Women” and demand a higher global crusade. These “Offenses against Women” include domestic violence, various kinds of abuse, harassment, trafficking etc. Many methods and systems have come up to monitor the safety and security of women against these kinds of offenses. However, because of lack of awareness of the rights, legislations and legal provisions, most of these offenses go unreported which further fuels the current situation of offenses against women.
To tackle this menace, the present innovation presents a mobile device-based application named “Paramarsh” consisting of the database of the Indian Constitution, Indian Penal Code and Women-Specific Legislations in order to aware women of these legal provisions and boost their morale to report such cases of offenses. The victim needs to input keywords related to the offense in the application and the application generates results related to the Constitutional rights being compromised, sections of Indian Penal Code and Women-Specific Legislations under which a case can be filed against the offender. The application is trained by data sets of legal provisions, which helps in the generation of precise and accurate results for the keywords entered. The application also provides suggestions to the victims related to the correct course of action. The application “Paramarsh” also features assistance in the form of location of nearby police station based on area input by the victim for further course of action.
BEST METHOD OF WORKING
Figure 1 depicts the flowchart of entire search process in the “Paramarsh” applications. The “Paramarsh” application consists of the following features in order to assist the victims:
1. Database: A database of Indian legal provisions for women including Indian Constitution, Indian Penal Code and Women-Specific Legislations.
2. Keyword Input Feature: The victim needs to start the mobile application (100) and input keywords related to the offense in the application keyword input area (101). After making a search in the database (102), the application generates results related to the Constitutional rights compromised, sections of Indian Penal Code and Women-Specific Legislations under which a case can be filed against the offender (103). In case of complete details of any one or all the results (104), the user needs click on that particular legal provisions provided in the suggestions (105). The application is trained by data sets of legal provisions thus helping in the generation of precise and accurate results for the keywords entered
3. Suggestions Feature: The application provides guidance by suggesting suitable course of action to be taken for that particular kind of offence for which the victim entered the keyword. In case of suggestions for proper course of action (106), the user needs to tap on the Suggestions tab (107).
4. Nearby Police Station: The application also features a Nearby Police Station option to enable the victim to search for nearby police station in order to help the victim, in case, she wants to file a case.
