Emphasising that women’s safety was “non-negotiable”, Lieutenant Governor TS Sandhu on Tuesday directed the Delhi Police to establish a dedicated ‘Pink Force’ comprising trained women personnel. The force will conduct high-visibility patrolling around schools, colleges, metro stations and other vulnerable areas across the national capital.
Speaking to senior Delhi Police officers at the police headquarters auditorium on Jai Singh Road, Sandhu said it should focus on creating a deterrent presence as well as ensuring a quick response, particularly during hours when women and other vulnerable groups may face greater risks.
