XVI. INTEGRATED CHILD PROTECTION SCHEME [ICPS]:

GOI announced a newly centrally Sponsored Scheme by name

Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS) with an objective to provide a

protective environment for overall development of children. Failure to protect

children has serious consequences for the physical, mental, emotional and social

development of the child, resulting in a loss of productivity, quality of human

capital and the social fabric of society.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF ICPS:

1. Improved access to and quality of child protection services.

2. Raise public awareness about the reality of child rights and situations of

children in India.

3. Clearly articulate responsibilities and enforced accountability of duty bears to

protect the rights of children.

4. Establish functioning structure at all government level and statutory structure

such as

• State Child Protection Society (SCPS)

• Dist. Child Protection Units (DCU)

• Child welfare Committees (CWC)

• Juvenile justice Board (JJB)

• Special Juvenile Police Units (SJPU) to strengthen child protection at

family & country level.

The ICPS provide preventive, statutory care and rehabilitation services to

vulnerable children including those from potentially vulnerable families and

families at risk, children of socially excluded groups like migrant families, families

living in extreme poverty, . SCs, ST & OBCs families subjected to or affected by

discrimination, minorities, children infected and / or affected by HIV/AIDS,

orphans, child drug abusers, children of substance abusers, child beggars,

19

trafficked or sexually exploited children, children of prisoners street & working

For effective implementation of ICPS Scheme, Government of A.P. issued

orders vide G.O. Ms No.22, Dt.31-08-2009, of WD CW &DW Dept., formulating

XVII) FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO VICTIMS

OF RAPE: A SCHEME FOR RESTORATIVE JUSTICE:

Rape is one of the most violent forms of crimes against women which not only

impacts her bodily integrity but in the long run impairs her capacity to develop

meaningful personal and social relationships. The victim suffers mental and

psychological trauma, which must be addressed so that she is able to lead a dignified

and meaningful life.

The Govt. of India therefore launched a Scheme for providing restorative

justice to victims of rape (Affected Women), on the directions of Hon’ble Supreme

Court, to provide financial assistance as well as support services such as Counseling,

Shelter, Medical and Legal aid. This Scheme is an attempt to provide a helping hand

to enable her to cope with the trauma suffered and to tide over her immediate and

long-term needs.

Under the scheme an affected woman will be entitled to Financial Assistance

and Restorative services for a maximum amount of Rs. 2.0 Lakhs in respect of cases

20

where FIR is registered on or after the date of launching of the scheme i.e 01.8.11.

However, the scheme is yet to be commence as GOI have not yet released Budget.

XVIII. SETTING UP OF STATE RESOURCE CENTRE FOR WOMEN

UNDER NATIONAL MISSION FOR EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN (NMEW)

The Government of India has launched the National Mission for

Empowerment of Women on 8th March, 2010. The purpose of the Mission is to

empower women, socially and economically so that they become an integral part of

the nation building process. Several ministries/departments of the GOI as well as the

Departments in the State Governments have a number of schemes/programmes

which are either women centric or have gender specific components. However,

gender gaps in most of the socio-economic indications are suggestive of the fact that

the benefits of the schemes/programmes haven’t reached the women in adequate

measure. One of the reasons for it is the lack of convergence among various

schemes/programmes due to which they flow in their respective independent silos.

The purpose of the Mission would be to secure convergence of

schemes/programmes of both the Central as well as State Governments. The

Mission will also review the legislations affecting women and their implementation,

apart from giving a fillip to gender mainstreaming of policies and programmes.

The Mission has a National Mission Authority at the apex level under the

Chairmanship of the Prime Minister. Two Chief Ministers by rotation for a period of

two years and five prominent civil society members would be nominated and notified

shortly. Besides, there would be two Central Level Committees one under the

Hon’ble MOS (IC ),MWCD and the other under the Cabinet Secretary. The National

Mission Authority shall be assisted by a Mission Directorate and the National

Resource Centre for Women. The State Mission Authority has been set up in the

state with Hon’ ble Chief Minister as the Chairperson and Ministers, Secretaries of

other departments as members.

CHAPTER-I

OUTCOME BUDGET, 2013-14

***

I ORIGIN OF THE DEPARTMENT:

Social Defense is an important professional service under Criminal Justice System.

Juvenile Social Defense has its origin from Indian Jails Committee (1919-20). Since then,

a number of Acts were enacted to provide separate treatment for youthful offenders. After

independence, various State Governments have enacted Acts relating to children

(juveniles). To dispense with the ambiguity in the laws governing the juveniles, a uniform

central legislation “Juvenile Justice Act 1986” was enacted. Later it was replaced with

Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 and another amendment was

brought in 2006. The state Government created a separate department of Juvenile

Welfare by vertical bifurcation from Jails Department as a policy of Central Government to

keep the Juvenile Welfare sector away from adult prisons administration. The department

came into existence from 10.4.1990. The subject of Probation & Correctional Services

was transferred to this Department in 1995. Further the subject of ‘Welfare of Street

Children’ was added to this department in 1997. The department was given the

nomenclature of ‘Juvenile Welfare, Correctional Services & Welfare of Street Children

Department’.

II OBJECTIVES:

A. Juvenile Welfare:

The department endeavors to undertake necessary steps for the development and

rehabilitation of Children in need of care and protection and Juveniles in conflict with law.

B. Probation:

Probation of Offenders Act in 1958 provides for correction of the wrongdoers in the

social setting (i.e., family & society) rather than sentencing them to the prisons. The

Probation Officers frequently visit the probationers placed under their supervision for

guiding & counseling the probationers about their welfare & future and extend services

needed by them for a place in the mainstream society. This is a preventive mechanism

through which the ‘Reversion to Crime’ is obstructed with guidance and counseling by the

District Probation Officers, thus reducing the crime rate in the society.

62

C. Welfare of Runaway Children:

The Runaway Children is fairly an urban phenomenon in recent times. The growth

of runaway children is a potential concern in urban areas. Government of India took
