What can be done on women security in Gurgaon

Times of India has launched a campaign on 
How to make Gurgaon safe for women?


This is what I think -



Answering on women security measure is simple and tough at the same time.
Simple because we learnt about women respect in school and through family values.
Though because there are certain segments of the society who still see women as a piece of sex toy. I wonder, what do they do with their wives, sisters and mothers.


There lot to be done to improve the situation in Gurgaon and PAN India:
1. It has to start with education - Ensure atleast secondary level education for all. Civic sense should be must subject.


2. Parenting & Work hours - ensure work life balance by strict 9AM to 5PM jobs. This will ensure that kids spend quality time with parents and grab good behavior/values.


3. Policing - More patrolling by police vans/bikes. Permanent installation of police booths or mobile vans at critical places.


4. Law - No mercy for guilty at whatever level. Toughest punishment.


5. Working hours for women - Try to accommodate women in morning shifts and if the job demands night shifts, then the employer has to ensure cabs with security guards.


6. Self defense Training -  A must for a girl child at school and college level.


7. Technology - GPS in mobiles a must, so that a alarm can be raised by the victim to the police and can be tracked immediately. Secondly, use of security camera at critical places a must.

Airtel apologies with its customers

For the last few days Airtel has struggled to ensure proper network connectivity for its customers. The situation was so bad the entire Delhi subscribers had no network signals for over 3hours in the evening i.e. Between 7-10 PM.
Mobile phone today has become an integral part of human life. One can forget a wallet but not the mobile. Yes, it was huge an inconvenience to the Airtel subscribers but I appreciate the fact the Airtel was brave enough to accept the fault and made efforts to correct the technical glitch.
Apology message from Airtel -
'Dear Customer, you may have experienced some connectivity issues with your airtel mobile. An unforseen technical outage occurred which affected services on some of our circuits. We have recovered from the outage and are delighted to have you back.We deeply regret the inconvenience'
Hope this does not get repeated, else people will switch over to other operators, especially when the number portability has been made so easy...

VIMP - Police warning when driving

This is happening now!

Sad, especially if you are inclined to 'help' people...

While driving on a rural end of the roadway on Thursday morning, I saw aninfant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it.
For whatever reason, I did not stop, even though I had all kinds ofthoughts running through my head. But when I got to my destination, I called the Police and they were going to check it out. But, this is what the Police advised even before they went out there to check....

"There are several things to be aware of ... gangs and thieves are now plotting different ways to get a person (mostly women)to stop their
vehicle and get out of the car. "There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police where gangs are placing a car seat by the road...with a fake baby in it...waiting for a woman, of course, to stop and check on the abandoned baby.

"Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or grassy (field) area and the person -- woman -- will be dragged into the woods, beaten and raped, and usually left for dead. If it's a man, they're usually beaten and robbed and maybe left for dead, too.

DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!!

DIAL 0-0-0
AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW, BUT DON'T EVEN SLOW DOWN.

"IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSCREEN, DO NOT STOP TO CHECK THE CAR, DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPER AND DO NOT SPRAY ANY WATER BECAUSE EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOME MILKY AND BLOCK YOUR VISION UP TO 92.5%, AND YOU ARE THEN FORCED TO STOP BESIDE THE ROAD AND BECOME A VICTIM OF THESE CRIMINALS.

THIS IS A NEW TECHNIQUE USED BY GANGS, SO PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES.

THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES AND THESE ARE UNSAVOURY INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT."

Get started NOW -- SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES TO BE CAREFUL AND AWARE OF EVERYTHING AROUND THEM SO AS NOT TO BECOME A VICTIM.
