"I landed at Bangalore International Airport. It was way past midnight. Like a routine, I walked towards Airport Taxi. Surprisingly, there was no queue at all.

The drivers pointed out to a cab towards the end. I was miffed.
One of the persons came up to me and asked, “Ma’am- single lady passenger? That pink taxi is for you.”
I was delighted to find a lady driver. As a woman traveller, I loved the assurance of my safety.

I smiled, knowing I could catch up on some sleep peacefully, as she would take care of me.
Well, the story doesn’t end here.
Around Brigade road, she slowed down for Friday night revellers. I suddenly remembered my duty-free shopping bag that l had left hanging on the trolley.

लिंगायत मुरुघ मठ के शिवमूर्ति स्वामी शरणारू को स्कूल जाने वाली नाबालिग दलित लड़कियों के यौन शोषण के आरोप में गिरफ्तार किया गया है। स्वामी का आरएसएस और भाजपा से घनिष्ठ संबंध है, इसलिए मुझे नहीं लगता कि उन्हें उनके जघन्य अपराध के लिए दंडित किया जाएगा। #StopRape #WomenSafety
मामला न केवल POCSO अधिनियम बल्कि SC / ST अत्याचार अधिनियम भी दर्ज किया गया है, इस @BJP4Karnataka @BSBommai सरकार को #MurugaSwamy को गिरफ्तार करने में 7 दिन लगे हैं। यह समाज को क्या संदेश देता है? इसके अलावा, सरकार और विपक्ष इस मामले में आरोपी के साथ शर्मीले और खड़े हैं।
निर्भया कांड में लाखों की संख्या में सड़कों पर उतरे लोगों का इस एक मामले में ठिठुरन देखकर हैरानी होती है. यह मामला जाति या भक्ति के कारण समाज में प्रभावशाली लोगों द्वारा किए गए अपराधों के लिए अप्रत्यक्ष समर्थन के प्रकार का प्रमाण है।

My daughter had a horrible experience on the train from Reading to Waterloo yesterday. At Ascot a late 50s man got on and was clearly very drunk from a day at the races. She was minding her own business when he started to say: go on smile you'd be prettier etc.. 1/5
2/5 when she ignored him (the audacity of a young 22 yr old female travelling on her own) it started to escalate to full blown harassment with comments relating to rophenol and rape! Fortunately the carriage was busy and some young men who had spent the day working at Ascot...
3/5 intervened and shouted him down and made him stop. As he was leaving the train (thankfully at a stop before her) he turned to the men and held out his hand to shake saying sorry lads, it was only a bit of banter! He did not apologise to my daughter. The men told him to...
#SupremeCourt holds condition imposing gender cap on Orchestra Bars in Maharashtra allowing them to keep only four women singers/artists and four male singers/artists on stage to be void.
A bench of Justices KM Joseph and S Ravindra Bhat held that the said restriction directly transgressed Article 15 (1) and Article 19 (1) (g) of the Constitution of India.
"While the overall limit of performers in any given performance cannot exceed eight, the composition (i.e., all female, majority female or male, or vice versa) can be of any combination", held the bench.

Few key points but not limited to this, which will be helpful to enhance the women safety in all areas.
All these are actionable points with specific time bound manner and we must demand from government.

1. All criminal cases, especially for MP/MLAs involved in women abuse in govt must be put on trial in fast track courts . If the party you support houses such people, and you don’t demand this, then you are passively responsible for the problem of women safety issue. 2/9
2. Fill vacant police posts. Not only it will help employment issue , it will also give common public extra layer of safety. In case of enhanced criminal activities and no progress in solving cases, d area in charge/SHO should b made accountable. Police station should hav CCTV3/9
Hey @Uber_Support @Uber @Uber_India. Was harassed this morning by my cab driver.
Got into the cab. Spoke loudly on loudspeaker and asked him to tone it down as I had calls to make. He then lifted his hands to hit me, and then abused me verbally and threatened to do something(1)

He then tried hitting me again cause I refused to listen to him abusing me. He then tried to speed away. I protected myself by pulling on the handbrake. God knows what would’ve happened if I didn’t. He then abused me in Hindi and Kannada. I managed to open the door and escape (2)
I’m sick of @Uber’s ways of dealing with this situation. An apology and refund doesn’t guarantee women’s safety at all. I’m scared and honestly shaken at this point. Broad daylight in Ulsoor and I luckily got away. What if? @BlrCityPolice Cab No: KA50A3135
