Coercive control is a criminal offence in New South Wales when manipulative and abusive behaviors are used against a current or former intimate partner. Recently, NGOs like the Harman Foundation have teamed up with the state government to support victims and raise awareness. In this podcast, OAM Harinder Kaur and Jasjeet Kaur explore coercive control, its impact on the Indian community, and the urgent need for increased awareness within the diaspora. They stress the importance of open dialogue to empower individuals and promote understanding.
