Increase patrolling around public places, workplaces, campuses and other vulnerable areas, especially during late hours. Police response must be quick and visible.
Universities, workplaces and public institutions should have active women’s safety cells, clear complaint mechanisms and strict accountability for negligence or delayed action.
Safer Infrastructure - Improve street lighting, CCTV coverage, emergency helplines, safe public transport and last-mile connectivity so women can move freely without fear.
Prevention beyond laws : Safety cannot depend only on stricter laws. Regular awareness programmes, gender-sensitisation, self-defence training and responsible community participation are essential to prevent violence before it occurs.
