Hindustan Surkhiyan Desk:On the eve of International Women’s Day, the Delhi Police has launched an all-women patrolling squad to protect women from cat-callers and instill a sense of confidence among women.
Police on Wednesday said the initiative was conceived with twin objectives — to give security and comfort to women and girls on roads, public places, outside schools, metro stations, parks and colleges in south Delhi, and to motivate policewomen.
“The initiative is aimed at motivating ‘female police personnel’ by making the system more inclusive for them and putting them as a pro-active front of field policing. All in all, it is an effort to provide additional safeguards to women in south Delhi,” Deputy Commissioner of Police Romil Baaniya said.
