Women Safety Delhi

Over 75 per cent of women feel unsafe commuting in Delhi buses after dark, even as the city government's fare-free bus travel scheme has crossed the milestone of 100 crore 'pink' tickets issued to women, a report said.

The circumstances of the terrible ordeal that each endured are so painfully similar that it makes one ask, when would Indias women have been abused and violated enough for us to act and do something substantial about it?

Delhi Lt Governor VK Saxena on Tuesday said Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's "deafening silence" on the alleged assault of AAP Rajya Sabha MP "speaks volumes of his stance on safety of women" and asked him to come clean on the matter.

Swati Maliwal, former chairperson of Delhi commission for women, took oath as a member of Rajya Sabha this afternoon. But the activist, known for her feisty statements on issues concerning safety of women, had to take the oath of office twice.

Eleven years since the gut-wrenching Nirbhaya rape incident on a moving bus, the Delhi High Court asked the Delhi government today about the feasibility of installing cameras on DTC buses and alert buttons on the driver and conductor's seats.

Swati Maliwal, Delhi Commission for Women (DCW), today appealed to the Indian embassy in the US to ensure the safety of Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's daughter, who has reportedly received threat calls from Khalistan supporters.

In a meeting on women safety chaired by LG VK Saxena, the Delhi Police informed on Thursday that it will soon recruit nearly 6,000 personnel including 3,000 women to improve policing in the national capital.

The alleged incident occurred near AIIMS in the early hours of January 19 when Ms Maliwal on a spot check of women's safety measures in the city was approached by a car driver, who was allegedly in an inebriated condition.

A day after Swati Maliwal, the chief of the Delhi Commission for Women, alleged that she was harassed and dragged by a drunk driver, a video of the incident shows her confronting the man, who has been arrested.
