Why do women these days need self-defence?

Has it ever happened that you had to rethink a midnight movie show? Or reject an invitation, as the venue is far away and unsafe? Then the chances are that you are a woman living in India. Women’s safety in India has been a hot issue. Crime against women has been continuously on the rise. We all had forgotten when was the last time a woman could leave the secured four walls of her house without worrying about her safety. Things have come down to such an extent that women are not safe even within the boundaries of their own household. This makes us think about women’s safety.

The facts and figures point towards the importance of women’s safety. The statistical data of 2017 released by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) showed some surprising data. In total, 3.5 Lakh cases of crime against women were registered. These crimes include kidnapping, acid attack, dowry death, murder, rape, etc. There was a rise of 83% in crime against women from 2007 to 2017. Not only this, the conviction rate decreased to an alarming 18.9%. The Crime in India report (2016) declared that 43% of rape survivors are teenagers below the adult age of 18. Speaking of women security in India, Delhi, the National capital and the Crime against Women’s capital, had the highest abduction rate, rape, and murder. From infants to old ladies, almost everyone has been a victim of sexual trauma in this city.

How to ensure women’s safety in India?

How long will the women of our country live in constant fear of being attacked and harmed?  In times of emergency, women must be alert, vigilant and careful. In the present times, women need to learn self-defence. It will empower them by giving them the freedom to make choices of their own. It allows them to take their own decisions without being affected by the fear of being harmed. Self Defense develops confidence in women and ensures their safety in difficult times. It reduces their dependence on others and allows them to handle dangerous and emergencies themselves.

Not every woman has the time, opportunity and fitness to learn and acquire martial art skills for physical combat. When the attacker cannot be directly dealt with, a woman can use women safety apps or Self-Defense gadgets. The safety devices for women are affordable, budget-friendly and easy to carry and handle.

So here we have an article on women safety that describes three essential steps to self-defence which every woman should follow.

1.    Inform your family and friends immediately using a GPS tracker

Nowadays, every smartphone has a built-in GPS tracker so that in case of need, you can share your location with your near and dear ones. But in most cases, attackers, at the very first instinct, snatches the mobile phone. In this kind of scenario, smart GPS trackers like Qbit GPS tracker that comes in the shape of a locket or Strata-Mini GPS Tracker with a built-in GPS with a variety of features include: geo-fence boundary crossings, emergencies, low battery, and SOS alarm proves to be beneficial and effective. This GPS tracker will come in handy in keeping your loved ones updated about your location and live to stream the video in emergency cases. This is a convenient tool that will surely get you out of this kind of bad situation. You can silently enable the GPS tracker and inform your family about your whereabouts, and they can get sufficient help available to you in that situation easily and fast.

2.    Grab the attention of nearby people 

 It takes some time for your family/friends to get you to help instantly. Therefore, try to get immediate help from nearby / surrounding people. Shouting might not help in every case as attackers might not leave you in a position to shout. It’s always better to be ready for every kind of situation, and for this kind of situation, keep e-alarms or panic alarms in your purse that will help you get the attention of nearby people with great ease with just one simple step. On pulling out a pin, it activates a high pitch alarm to notify nearby people that something is happening around them and they need help. These alarms are compact, small in size, waterproof and have long battery life.

Many times, nearby people come to rescue instead of the police because the police will take some time to track the location and come there, but nearby people can reach faster. This will definitely save your life.

3.    Use Safety Devices to protect yourself

The whole thing about self-defence martial arts is that people do not learn how to use them because they do not need to. But you can make great use of it in the end because self-defence has become a necessity in the current day and age.
