In an attempt to make Bengaluru safe for women, the Karnataka government has decided to spend ₹498 crore for various projects under the Nirbhaya Fund in the next one to two years.
Under the “safe city project” for women, a total of 7,000 state-of-the art cameras would be installed in 3,000 sensitive locations, and thickly populated junctions on the peripheral areas of the city, Home Minister Araga Jnanendra told The Hindu on Wednesday.
