NCSC Launches Online Grievance Management Portal for Persons from Scheduled Castes

National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) launched the Online Grievance Management Portal to enable Scheduled Castes population of the country to file their application and other atrocity and services related grievances online and to get them addressed in a time bound manner. The portal can be accessed at https://ncsc.negd.in/

NCSC aims to streamline the grievance redressal specially of the Scheduled Caste population through this portal. The portal will facilitate an end-to-end e-filing of complaints and grievances and their tracking. Finally, it is intended to make the hearing process work on similar lines as e-courts. This portal is linked to the Commission’s website and one can file one’s complaint upon registering on it. The facility to upload documents and audio/video files is also available. This would supplement the physical submission of complaints and grievances.

The National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) was set up under the Article 338 of the Constitution of India with the objective to investigate and monitor all issues pertaining to the safeguards provided for the Scheduled Castes under any law for the time being in force or under any order of the Government of India. The Commission also enquires into specific complaints with respect to the deprivation of rights and safeguards provided for the Scheduled Castes. The NCSC renews its commitment to serve the cause of the SC community as mandated in the Constitution and policies of the government.
