The universal centre for women (UCW) will be one-stop centre to serve women affected by violence, in private or at public places, within family, community or at work place.
"Apart from providing a library, skill development centre, gymnasium, grievance redressal, and counselling cells, the centre would also deal with issues related to physical, sexual, emotional, psychological, and economic abuse," District Development Commissioner Rajouri Shahid Iqbal Choudhary said.
"The centre would also keep a vigil on issues of drug abuse, rehabilitation, relief and assistance," he said.
"It will be a coordination centre for issues related to police and health," he said.
A committee headed by the district magistrate will manage the functioning of the centre which will start functioning in September.
