Women Safety in India

Women safety in India is a big concern which has been a most important topic regarding women safety. Every single day single women, young girls, mothers and women from all walks of life are being assaulted, molested, and violated. The streets, public transport, public spaces in particular have become the territory of the hunters. While the ones already hunted down weep in silence or in disdain, the rest fight their way to a basic life with dignity.

There is an unspoken war on the streets. Young school and college going girls use books to shield themselves, other women wear full-covered attire to protect their bodies, and others avoid the mere glance of the roving gaze.

Women's safety has become an increasingly highlighted issue in India over the last few years. Several incidents have received considerable media attention and become the subject of intense debate among politicians, police and civil society. There are, however, numerous incidents that have never been noticed or reported, partly because women have become so accustomed to them. These include frequent occurrences of 'eve teasing' (a term used primarily in India to refer to instances of harassment in public places) which are part and parcel of daily life.

IBCHAM believes that there is need of deep introspection and a more comprehensive strategy needs to be devised in consultation with all stakeholders with police authorities taking the lead.

In connection to improve the situation, IBCHAM set up an independent council of Women Safety in association with various stakeholders to deeply understand the pragmatic challenges with safety issues and devise the roadmap for betterment of the safety challenges for the interest of women.

The objectives of National Council of Women Safety are:

  • To groom the teenagers towards to become responsible citizen
  • To bring up the moral value among youth and society towards women
  • Educate the society to support the women through understanding their challenges and their importance in the society
  • Educate the women towards the women safety issues
  • To be voice of women on subject of safety issue and help them to get justice
  • Efforts towards rehabilitation of the victims
  • Improve the communication gap between women, society and Police
  • Submit the report to the government on the new challenges faced by women
  • To focus any of the issues which pertain to the safety of women.
