Finance Minister Renganaden Padayachy announced a “Survivor Support Scheme” of Rs 5,000 for victims of domestic violence while presenting the Budget 2024-25.

Mélanie Valère-Cicéron, president of Passerelle, thinks that this small step forward can bring minor changes. However, she mentions that there should have been a support program, or even rather housing assistance.
