re due to mental illnesses, as against 5.8 percent due to cancer and 4.4 percent due to heart diseases.

Said Nimesh G. Desai, medical superintendent at the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences, Delhi's only mental hospital: "Sexual abuse and exploitation are the main reasons for mental aberration in Delhi."

He added: "Many divorces are happening on the ground of mental illness and here women need free legal aid. We hope NCW, the government and NGOs will lend their support to fight their cause."

Desai said his hospital would partner NCW in all their efforts.
