India has made significant progress in recent years to improve women’s safety, but there is still much work to be done. Here are some additional laws and measures that could help improve women’s safety in India:

1. Stringent laws for sexual harassment: Strengthen the existing laws on sexual harassment, such as the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, to ensure greater accountability and punishment for perpetrators.
2. Harsher punishment for crimes against women: Increase the severity of punishments for crimes like rape, acid attacks, and domestic violence to serve as a deterrent.
3. Proper implementation of existing laws: Ensure that laws already in place, such as the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961, and the Domestic Violence Act, 2005, are properly implemented and enforced.
4. Increased police presence and response: Increase the number of women police officers and ensure they are adequately equipped to handle cases of violence against women.
5. Improved reporting mechanisms: Establish a user-friendly reporting mechanism for women to report cases of harassment or violence, with guaranteed anonymity and confidentiality.
6. Sensitization and training for law enforcement: Provide regular sensitization and training programs for law enforcement officials to handle cases of violence against women with empathy and professionalism.
7. Community-based initiatives: Promote community-based initiatives that encourage men to take responsibility for preventing violence against women and promote gender equality.
8. Education and awareness campaigns: Launch public awareness campaigns to educate people about the importance of gender equality, consent, and respect for women’s rights.
9. Safe public spaces: Ensure that public spaces, including public transportation, parks, and markets, are safe and accessible for women.
10. Economic empowerment: Implement policies to empower women economically by providing equal opportunities in education, employment, and entrepreneurship.
11. Protection from cyber harassment: Enact specific laws to protect women from cyber harassment, including online stalking, bullying, and sexual harassment.
12. Increased funding for women’s organizations: Allocate more funds to organizations working on women’s issues, such as those providing support services for survivors of domestic violence or providing education on women’s rights.
