Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Answer: B
The Act mandates a Local Complaints Committee in every district.
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 requires the District Officer to constitute a Local Committee in each district. It hears complaints from workplaces with fewer than ten workers, where no Internal Committee exists, and complaints against the employer.
The Internal Complaints Committee is set up by each employer at the workplace, not at the district level. Saathins are village-level women workers of Rajasthan's Women's Development Programme, and Sakhi is the One Stop Centre scheme for women affected by violence; neither is the committee the Act prescribes.
