Dear All
Firstly, thank you for the time spent reading this. Your help will be highly appreciated.
As we all know, in India, the safety is the biggest concern of travellers. Especially true for females. A woman is not safe on the street , in a bus , in a train or in a house. A woman in India does not feel safe even in a hotel! Why is it so? It is under th consumer protection laws that the resident in a hotel or lodge is covered. However, honestly I would like to know why are strong implementation of these laws not done?
The biggest issue why crimes keep happening is that there is no fear in the mind of the law-breaker.
We need to change that. We must come up with handful of big strong cases which will be strongly publicised by the media. The biggest issue why criminal activities continue unabated is lack of FEAR. We must instill this fear in the minds of the perpetrators.
Do let me know your thoughts. While you are at it. Do take a look at the following such incident that happened
