The focus of the &lsquo;Rani Chennamma Pade&rsquo; team will be on educating and training women about basic self-defence techniques, making them aware of about the laws concerning women and children like POCSO, NDPS Act because in many cases they are not in know about them, their rights and also about laws in their favour. Being unaware of these acts as a deterrent for them to file complaints in case of criminal incidents against them.</p>
<p>
With the digital medium becoming prominent in the society, women will also be made aware about the use of social media and cybercrimes and how to lodge complaints in such scenarios.</p>
<p>
Besides Bengaluru, other cities too have initiated special wings or teams of female police personnel for tackling crimes against women like the Nirbhaya squad of Mumbai.</p>
