Kolkata Police launched a month-long awareness campaign on crimes against women and cyber safety, with the Durga Suraksha Squad running sessions across 120 locations in the city.
The campaign is aimed at educating residents on recognizing and reporting crimes against women as well as cybercrime threats, part of the police force’s broader community outreach efforts. The scale of the drive, spanning 120 locations, reflects a significant mobilization of the specialized squad’s resources.
The initiative adds to similar awareness campaigns being run by police departments in other Indian cities focused on women’s safety and digital crime prevention.
The Durga Suraksha Squad has been at the center of Kolkata Police’s women’s safety initiatives in recent years, with awareness campaigns typically paired with helpline promotion and self-defense training sessions.
