Earlier when you do a search did a search of the Internet it took two months to find some organisation who would help you when you were falsely accused. Now it takes a search on 'dowry misuse' or '498a' miuse to find a telephone helpline in the nearest city. For a 'net-savvy person it takes 5 minutes to find a helpline. As Mohan said, he was surprised to receive guidance which gave him a far better view of the situation and actionables then any lawyer gave him, and it happened in just 15 minutes, and so he knows now it is no longer a lonely battle. In a space of 4 months of activity, NGOs have opened in four cities: Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi and Jaipur."
