The jurisdiction of the Local Complaint Committee, Act says, shall extend to the areas of the district where it is constituted.
“Accordingly, it is impressed upon all the Deputy Commissioners and Heads cf the Departments to constitute Local Complaint Committee (LCC) at District level in terms of Section- 6 of Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 to receive complaints of Sexual harassment where the internal complaint committee has not been constituted,” it said.
