In a novel offer on the occasion of International Women’s Day, the police department announced discounts on select products for women who have downloaded the Disha app on their mobile phones.
The department worked out an arrangement with several retail outlets and shopping malls in the city to provide 10% discount to women on this day.
This scheme is learnt to be part of the promotional campaign taken up by the department to popularise the app that has enabled many women and girls to seek immediate police help during times of distress.
