In
the last few years, crime against women in Delhi has increased to a great extent.
According to the statistics, it is found that every two out of three women have suffered
around two to five times sexual harassment in the last year. According to the survey of
women, it is found that women are losing their confidence in police. By the survey of Delhi
government‟s Women and
Child Development Department, around 80% of the women in
national capital have fear regarding their safety.
Women are harassed not only in the night or evening but also in the day time at their
home, working places, or other places like street, club, etc. It is
found through the survey
that the reason of sexual harassment is the lack of gender-friendly environment and
improper functional infrastructure such as consumption of alcohol and drugs in open area,
lack of adequate lighting, safe public toilets, sidewalks, lack
of effective police service, lack
of properly working helpline numbers, etc. A huge percentage of women have no faith that
police can curb such harassment cases. There is an urgent need to understand and solve
this problem of women safety so that they can also grow equally like men in their own
country.
SAFETY OF WOMEN IN INDIA ESSAY 4 (250 WORDS)
It is very true that women in India are given a place of Goddess
Lakshmi in the Indian
society however we also cannot ignore the negative aspect of women position in India.
Every day and every minute some women of all walks of life (a mother, a sister, a wife,
young girls, and girl baby children) are getting harassed, molested, assaulted,
and violated
at various places all over the country. Areas like streets, public spaces, public transport,
etc have been the territory of women hunters. Girl students studying in the schools or
colleges have to shield themselves through books or bags or
they have to wear clothes
which can cover them completely. In some cases a girl child is sale by her parents just to
earn some money. Girls generally face acid attacks on the streets and kidnapping for the
sex purpose by strangers. According to the statistics, it is found that a woman is raped in
India every 20 minutes.
In
the rural areas, women are still being raped by a family member, beaten by husbands or
parents-in-law, burned for dowry, and so many cases. Nirbhaya gang-rape in the national
capital of India was a dreadful event which can never be forgotten.
Woman covers almost
half population of the country so they are half participants in the growth and development
of India. We are running in the 21st century, an advanced era however it is very shame to
say about the doubtful safety of woman in India.
