The NARI 2025 National Annual Report and Index on Women's Safety, released by the National Commission for Women, offers the telling reality of the urban safety landscape.

- VISMAY BASU @New Delhi

The survey covered 12,770 women across 31 cities and yielded a national safety score of 65%, which implies that four in 10 women (40%) consider themselves unsafe despite government assurances.

Around 60% of women reported feeling safe, while 40% admitted they felt "not-so-safe" or outright unsafe. The anxieties deepen among younger women: while public harassment was reported by 7% of all respondents in 2024, the figure rose to 14% for those under 24, indicating that students and young professionals are disproportionately targeted in educational and recreational spaces.
