The crowd was made to understand that Domestic Violence can be curtailed and reduced dramatically with everyone playing their part to avoid the “Bystander Syndrome”. Crowds that visited the MCPF Exhibition booth were provided awareness on Fighting Crime Together; Forced Labour; Healthy Living without Drugs; Safe Campus Life; Anti-Bullying; School Safety; in addition to this year’s PGO 2025 Theme speaking up against Domestic Violence especially of Women and Children.
