Pink booths fail to meet expectations
Millennium Post Delhi|December 16, 2024
NEW DELHI: The "Pink Booths" and "Integrated Facilitation Booths" in Delhi, designed to offer safe spaces for women, are failing to meet expectations, with many of them either locked, unmanned, or poorly staffed.

Pink booths fail to meet expectations

Originally meant to be operated exclusively by female officers in areas with high footfall like markets, schools, and colleges, these booths are now seen as ineffective due to inconsistent staffing and lack of maintenance.

Recent checks revealed that most booths were either empty or had only a solitary male officer present, despite the initial promise that they would be staffed entirely by women. In some areas, the booths remained locked, leaving women without the support system they were promised.
