Imagine a special safe place called a Bharosa Centre for grown-ups and kids who are sad or hurt.
These centers are like superheroes, offering help with police, doctors, lawyers, and someone to talk to, all in one spot.
The top police officer in Telangana announced that these helpful centers will soon be in every single district.
This is to make sure that nobody feels alone when they need help.
They have already opened many of these centers across the state.
The newest one just opened in a place called Shamshabad.
These centers have teams ready to listen, give advice, and help with all the steps needed to get justice and feel better.
They are known all over the country for being a great way to help people who are in trouble.
Bharosa Centres will be opened in all districts across Telangana as one-stop crisis support systems.
