Challenges

Her journey reflects the resilience of an individual and the critical support role of organizations like Shakti Public Charitable Trust.

  1. Personal Loss: Jyothi tragically lost her first husband in an accident within three months of their marriage.
  2. Abusive Second Marriage: She remarried with her family’s consent in a temple, but the marriage was not formally documented. Over five years, she endured escalating abuse, including life-threatening incidents, before fleeing with her daughter.
  3. Ongoing Harassment: After eight years of separation, her estranged husband resumed harassment, including sending obscene messages, causing disruptions at her workplace, and embarrassing her at her daughter’s school.

How Shakti Public Charitable Trust Helped

  1. Counseling and Emotional Support – Shakti Public Charitable Trust provided Jyothi with immediate counseling, helping her process her experiences and reduce her stress. This step was crucial in restoring her emotional stability and empowering her to act further.
  2. Police Intervention – Jyothi was directed to the police station with jurisdiction over her case, where law enforcement authorities contacted her estranged husband and formally cautioned him. As a result of this intervention, he provided assurance that he would discontinue any further harassment.
  3. Cyber Support – Shakti Public Charitable Trust guided Jyothi in filing a formal complaint with the cyber security department. The cyber team promptly called her for a meeting to assess the extent of the harassment and initiate the necessary steps to address it.
  4. Legal Assistance – The lawyer carefully determined the most appropriate course of action, whether through active intervention or mediation, considering that the couple has already been separated for eight years. At Shakti Public Charitable Trust, our priority is always the well-being of our clients.
