The real problem? Why is New Delhi so particularly unsafe?
Poor policing and abysmal conviction rate that allows rapists often a free run.
"The police have their priorities skewed," complains B Arun, a journalist with a prominent newspaper. Theoretically, Delhi has a policeman for every 223 people, but what’s unstated is that most of their duty hours are spent on protecting the teeming number of political leaders who crowd the nation’s capital. Policing streets therefore is shoddy as is investigation of crime".
"It is very difficult to step outside after 5-6pm. Many people come from different parts of the country and they feel that they can do anything and can get away with it," she said. "If police take strict action against culprits, it can send across the right message. Crimes are increasing here because the perpetrators go scot-free."
Delhi is full of construction work (flats being developed by builders). The police are too busy fleecing the builders (who are financed by the politicians to buy land) to take our calls for help. At the same time, they are literally "in the pay" of these builders, so they listen to the builders in the case of disputes with other citizens.
When I clicked on the link, I thought it was an ad for a company that produces or sells security products - pepper spray and the likes, or maybe for a company making a new security app that would automatically text police/friends with your location if certain conditions were met - and there are a few apps like that. While in poor taste, nay abhorrent, it wouldn't be surprising for a company to try and exploit a tragedy like this for capital gain.
But the thing is, their product has nothing whatsoever to do with security! Who is the moron who thought this up? If it were my company I'd fire the person on the spot - not just for being an @#%@@#, but also for coming up with something so idiotic. And if the founder/owner was the one who came up with this, then I'd get the hell out because I wouldn't wanna work for a complete and utter moron.
Not are they completely insensitive, but they are monumental morons.
