"A Centre Advisory Committee was formed two years back to check trafficking of women and rescue and rehabilitation of sex workers. However, not a single meeting has taken place so far. The DCW chief has written to Union Women and Child Development Minister Maneka Gandhi today to expedite the proceedings of the committee," an official at DCW said.
Maliwal along with two members of the commission-Sarika Chaudhury and Promila Gupta today visited the red light area on Delhi's GB Road and interacted with sex workers.
"During an interaction with the sex-workers at GB road today, it was revealed that the supply of condoms has been disrupted there from quite some time. To resolve this issue, Maliwal has written to the Director of AIDS Control Society seeking a status report on the distribution," the official said.
The Delhi State AIDS Control Society is an autonomous body of Delhi Government. It is the nodal agency responsible for implementing the National AIDS Control Programme in the national capital.
