Celebrating a happy Women’s Day on March 08, India must never forget the atrocious way Nirbhaya (actual name not known) met her end. The young medico was brutally raped in a moving bus in the national capital. She later succumbed to these injuries after fighting to survive while being treated. The incident shattered the entire nation. Though this was not the first of its kind, yet this one became the whistle blower for the weak women security in the country of billions.
Most harassment the eves face is while commuting and many drastic incidents like women returning late nights facing live nightmares in the hands of cab drivers have been in headlines. Putting an end to such harmful situations that women are pruned to, a woman entrepreneur has come up with a novel initiative that is how SHE CABS was born in Hyderabad.
SHE CABS is by the women, for the women and of the women. The sentence looks apt, as the drivers are well trained women cabbies, behind the wheels. These cabs only serve the women and are fitted with hi-tech signaling systems.
Nominal rates, 24/7 operations are the highlights of this venture floated by The Andhra Pradesh Balala Hakkula Sangham. Anuradha Rao (CEO) and Vijaya Reddy (MD) conduct the day-to-day operations of this innovate initiative that focuses on women security.
SHE CABS services can be availed by calling 9393024242. Women cabbies are also trained in martial arts to defend themselves and their passengers in adverse situations. In addition to this, an added security measure for these cabs is the details of the passengers are texted to the nearest police station as soon as the passenger boards and after reaching the destination. Hence, it is a complete foolproof method for tracking.
This women’s day special gift for Hyderabad women is SHE CABS, with adequate security resulting in a peaceful ride. grajkishan@gmail.com
