Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav would launch this service on 19th November. Initially, UP 100 will start its operations in 11 districts : Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Allahabad, Varanasi, Bareilly, Gorakhpur, Jhansi, Meerut, Moradabad and Rampur. 100 women personnel would be posted at the call centre and two sub-centres would be established in Agra and Varanasi.
