On one hand, we read headlines like ‘Girls win the top positions’, ‘Girls make it big again’ in newspapers every day and on the other hand we see many girls whose dreams perish in the face of circumstances. Facing many challenges even today, hindering their pace of progress, women are living and fighting every day.

Gender equality is not just a word or a slogan but also a reflection of the state of society. Women/girls are trying hard to make a difference but society and the community are making negligible efforts towards gender equality.

When women/girls step out of the house for their growth and empowerment, they suffer various forms of violence and harassment in cities, workplaces, public transport, and public places. Torture, sarcasm, staring, stalking, sexual assault, and sexual harassment of girls and women in cities have become an everyday occurrence. Even if something does not happen on such a large scale, the workplace and public places do not give them a favourable environment of growth.
The fear and insecurity of increasing violence in the cities continuously affects the lives of girls and women, thereby inhibiting their development and impacting their entire lives.

Men and women are like two wheels of the society who lead the society towards progress. In such a situation, it is the responsibility of the society, especially the youth, to support and help in the development of a safe and inclusive space for women and girls. Develop cities and public spaces, where girls and women fearlessly indulge in the mainstream of development without fear of violence.

The Department of Women and Child Development, Government of Madhya Pradesh is organizing a discussion on 'Safe City, Workplace, Transport, and Public Places'. The main objective of which is to develop such safe cities and safe public spaces in the state, where the daughters and women of every age, community are free from the danger of sexual harassment and fear of sexual or any kind of violence. A state where she can boldly access basic services like education, health, employment, and as a responsible citizen she can fearlessly contribute to the community and society and enjoy a violence-free life.

The department invites the citizens of the state to give their suggestions/views on the following issues:
1. The positive role of youth in building a safe city for women.
2. Protection of women in public transport.
3. Creating a completely safe environment for women at work.
4. Creating an environment free of sexual violence and other violence for girls and women in all educational institutions.
5. To make public places and tourist places safe for women.
