Hoe safe is metro for women?

Travelling by the Metro train today is a challenge in itself, especially for females. Many of the public today prefer taking the Metro over other public transport due to its being reasonable, faster and comfortable service. But I believe that a majority of women do not feel safe while travelling in the Delhi Metro. Sometimes it include instances of verbal and physical harassment faced by women. Those who choose to travel in the general compartment are also harassed. There are girls who work late. But they still are afraid to take the metro after 10pm.

Then what is the motive behind running this metro which public still consider a safe transport?

A small initiative for the women will help in taking forward one more step towards making Delhi a better place.
