Thiruvananthapuram: 

Women police personnel on Sunday took charge as station house officers (SHO) in police stations across Kerala on the occasion of International Women's Day.

This comes as part of the Kerala Director General of Police (DGP) Lokanath Behera's directive to all district police chiefs to handover duty of SHO to women police personnel on March 8.

"Maximum number of police stations will be managed by women SHOs on International Women's Day. In police stations without women SHOs, senior civil police officers will carry out the duty. They will interact with the public and will investigate the complaints received," the directive from the Kerala DGP had said.

About The Campaign

NDTV in partnership with UBER is launching a sustained campaign 'Roshan Dilli'  to try and raise safety standards in India's capital, New Delhi.

Our focus is to try and improve lighting in public spaces in the city. Lighting is a key factor in shaping women's perceptions of safety

The initiative will provide a platform for all stakeholders to discuss our goal of improving safety standards, to start a conversation about safety of women in the country

It will also highlight various interventions and solutions that help to make women safe and put the spotlight on what more can be done.

The campaign will accentuate the need for Safety to be a shared responsibility

The need for gender sensitization and how law enforcement and civil society through checks and education can try and make women safer

We hope you will join us and help make New Delhi a safer city for women.
