Women Only, Please! Women-Only Pink Parks Are Coming to Delhi
The Delhi Government has recently announced the inauguration of parks specifically dedicated to women. These parks have been named pink parks and are exclusively developed for women. The objective behind this initiative is to develop a safe space for women.
The Public Works Department has already started identifying the locations suitable for constructing these pink parks. In a recent interview with the press, the Chief Minister of Delhi, Mr. Arvind Kejriwal, expressed his intention to develop comfortable places for women in the state. According to the sources, these pink parks would be constructed across all 250 city wards.
Aaley Mohammed Iqbal, who happens to be the Deputy Mayor of Delhi, has recently revealed all the details concerning the project. As a pilot project, a pink park would be set up on Mata Sundari Road.
The park would permit only children above 10 years and women to enter. These parks will be equipped with all the latest and modern facilities such as CCTV cameras, toilets, graffiti on the walls, and other gym facilities. The councilors would be responsible for selecting a park in their respective wards. These parks would be converted into pink parks.
This move empowers women to explore the city freely.
Over time, there has been an increase in the crimes such as rape, abduction, molestation, and eve-teasing committed in community parks. Many women have reportedly filed an FIR in the police station alleging these offenses.
As a result, most of them refrained from going to the park. After repeated requests, the officials in Delhi Government have decided to curate special parks for women so that they feel space. The entry of men would be strictly prohibited.
Any attempt by men to enter the pink parks is punishable with fines and imprisonment. These parks would be closely monitored throughout the day and accessible at late hours.
Women security officers would guard the pink parks. The lady officers would continue patrolling throughout the day to ensure the women’s safety inside the parks. Various amenities such as swings, benches, cafeterias, and refreshment joints would be established within the parks.
These efforts will help develop a unique ecosystem for women. The officials have already begun the work in this regard. The Delhi Government has also launched a portal inviting suggestions from women concerning developing these pink parks. These suggestions will be taken into accord to satisfy the interest of all the women living in Delhi.
The Delhi women have expressed gratitude to the Government for taking such a bold move. These developments are very important to increase the citizens’ confidence in the government’s efficiency in protecting its citizens at every cost.
The Government will launch new initiatives in order to improve the security of women in the city. The Aam Aadmi Party has tried its level best to control the crime against women through a slew of measures implemented over the period of time for the best interests of women.
