A source from the team says, “Backed by a national Emergency Operations Centre, members will have access to a special Kavach team, a network of security, legal and high end forensic support medical, all of whom are former army and special force professionals, to support victims.”

Talking about it Preity says, “I started Kavach to ensure that no woman should fear for her personal safety in her daily life. It has taken me five long years to get here because I feel like we have a duty to the women of India to reduce the risk of violence, to support those that have been affected, and to educate the country that safety is a right, not a privilege”.
