Providing cheaper credit to self-help groups is not an objective of the One Stop Centre scheme.

The One Stop Centre (OSC) scheme, known as Sakhi, is a centrally sponsored scheme implemented by the Ministry of Women and Child Development since 2015. Its primary aim is to provide support to women affected by violence in private and public spaces, within the family, community, and at the workplace.

The key objectives of the OSC scheme include providing integrated support and assistance services such as medical aid, police assistance, psycho-social counseling, legal aid and counseling, and temporary shelter to women affected by violence. Providing cheaper credit to self-help groups falls under economic empowerment initiatives, which are separate from the scope and focus of the OSC scheme, which deals directly with responding to violence against women.
