This initiative, but even so helping the participants learn how to offer protection to themselves against harassment and violence, could have every other spin-off: it will also be a relationship-building workout and provides a lot of girls the arrogance to means police officers when they're in misery. Recent enjoy at police stations has not been encouraging for a lot of girls.



Firstly, the training will be restricted to weekends so to permit scholars and dealing girls to participate. Secondly, the training will be imparted for around 3 hours each day and finally, it will be scheduled so to steer clear of clashing with the opposite two KPSI programmes — cricket and basketball.

“The weekend timing was once the primary call for from participants and ladies wrote pronouncing they were forced to let go of the opportunity as the training was once stretching into week days. Also, this time there is not any pressure to stick to closing dates like remaining time,” said a supply.

“The number of slots available, the need for a charge and other modalities will be discussed in our upcoming meeting,” said the supply.


The sudden spurt of crime against girls in public puts has made Kolkata Police get a hold of a novel coaching programme to train adolescent women and girls how to tackle such incidents. The self-defence coaching, as of now, will necessarily include the basics of self-defence and will be taught by tutors keeping black belts (2nd dan).
