Bangalore Women- Safe??

BANGALORE WOMEN- SAFE??

Are Bangalore women really safe or is this all just to show off? On January 4^th, Times of India published the measures that R. Ashok was about to take on the safety of women. But now as a fact, women still wonder, why talk so much and do nothing about it. When R. Ashok bought about the changes in the women’s safety, in his speech, he sure did mention about the GPS. He said that the GPS will be installed and made compulsory in all cabs, ensuring security for women. “If GPS is not installed in cabs, we will take action against the companies concerned. They will have to ensure that GPS system is installed in the vehicles that are hired for transportation. We will see that GPS is installed within a month by them.” He said.

Adding on to the above, he even stated that college, school and employed women could contact the helpline round the clock if they’d face any problem. He also mentioned the misuse of women’s photographs on various social networks. But having said all this, does it really help ensure safety of women? About CCTV’s he said, more of them must be installed at public places in Bangalore. He adds on it saying that mapping of isolated places in the state has already been started.

Coming back to the same question, as to how will all these help ensure women safety, it’s all still a blur. We know that they weren’t just playing around with the public but actually have taken certain actions on criminals and rapists. But now the question arises, for how long will they be able to maintain it? As there comes a saying, “When a rule is made, there’s always someone who can break it.” Therefore, we now receive chain messages saying that rapists are using eggs and small baby seats on the road, to trick women, so they can rape them, when they stop to check.

Where is the government taking our country, ultimately? They raise prices, in order to develop a for women’s and no device the country, but still stuck with commenting and disrespecting their women. It’s ridiculous !! Having a helpline (1091) for women’s help but not being able to help any, when being called. If the parliament is trying to make us aware, by indirectly forcing all the women to sit at home, then something serious has to be done before things get worse.

In conclusion, I would just say that, if things like this continue and if women are sexually harassed and men (with power / without power) just move on, as a joke, then I bet every individual will start shifting from India and go elsewhere on this planet.
