Proposed solution- Measures of ensuring women safety
• Make use of information and communication technology. All women must be equipped with a band shaped electronic device which can be used to give indication in case of emergency.
USE OF INFORMATION AND TECHONOLOGY
• Setting of government organizations and protection cells completely dedicated and designed for women safety issues.
• Setting up of institutes to provide knowledge of basic women rights and remedies available.
Awareness of Human and legal rights
• As per Washington post report there are only 15 judges in between 1 million people while china has 159.
• Misappropriate allotment of police force between pubic & Official beaurecrats.
• Strict and immediate actions should be taken for crime against women
A very strict and stringent fast track legal system
Steps for women empowerment
• Taking immediate and necessary action for passing women reservation bill at the earliest
• Giving equal opportunities to women in politics, sports, education etc. • As per census of central government employees only 7.53% of total employees
in central government are women, we propose it to be at least 1/3rd of the total employees
• At least one board member of every company must be a woman member which will ensure women employees to raise their voice equally.
• All central schools and education institution must compulsorily impart self defense training to all girls
• A pan India helpline no. such as 181 launched by ministry of telecom should be implemented strictly in all states
• Promotion and encouragement by government of formation of self help
groups such as SEWA, self employed women association • Project shakti of HUL is a classic e.g. of self help group encouraging women
empowerment.
HOW TO EMPOWER WOMEN
• Form a central crime Branch for women safety in all states this could be a coordinated efforts by NGOs who care for issues of women .
• Relate women's adhar card numbers for providing them with subsidized facilities in education and health sector for their children and themselves.
• All government banks should provide easy interest loans and high interest rate fixed deposits for single women.
