Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Women organisations played a critical role in the making of the Protection of Women from the Domestic Violence Act as they were the ones who organised various public hearings, campaigns, and protests that made their message spread among the masses and their voice reached the Parliament. In addition, they, along with various law-school graduates and lawyers, drafted an act that listed their demands for women. Finally, a bill was introduced in the Parliament in 2002; however, these organisations didn't find this bill fulfilling their demands to the fullest, so they addressed the standing committee of Parliament to make changes in the law. Finally, the law, along with all of the demands of women's organisations for the survivors, came into effect in 2006.
