Hyderabad Police’s new step for women’s safety

Hyderabad Commissioner of Police Anjani Kumar inaugurated the new initiative in the presence of Additional Commissioner of Police, Shikha Goel.

Hyderabad Police’s Women’s unit launched a new initiative called ‘Saath Saath Ab Aur Bhi Pass’ for better safety and security of women, 

The initiative marks the 7th anniversary of the Women’s unit on Saturday, Oct 23 . As part of this, Hyderabad Commissioner of Police Anjani Kumar inaugurated the new initiative in the presence of Additional Commissioner of Police, Shikha Goel.

The Women’s teams were launched in Hyderabad City on October 24, 2014. These teams were formed keeping in view the Telangana Government’s vision for a safe and secure environment for women. 

Following its huge success, the concept was implemented throughout the state of Telangana. Soon, many other states like Kerala, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh followed suit.

Hyderabad Police Commissioner, Anjani Kumar says “We have decided that in-charge of Hyderabad’s Women’s  team, Sirisha Ragavedra, who is also the additional DCP, will come here every Wednesday at Chelapura South zone to provide quick relief and remedies to women and girls of this area.”

“As per the statistics of the National Crime Records Bureau, Hyderabad is one of the safest cities in India as far as women safety is concerned. But we have to continue with the work. We have to see that crime against women is reduced further. Any criminal activity with an intention to hurt women should be promptly dealt with. Says the Commissioner

The Police Commissioner applauded the Women’s Teams, the first of its kind initiative of Hyderabad City Police, as it addressed problems of more than 8000 victims and their families.
