In a bid to strengthen women’s safety, the Gautam Buddh Nagar Commissionerate Police have placed 210 identified crime-prone areas under constant surveillance. A total of 370 cameras have been installed across these hotspots, which include markets, metro stations, and major intersections. Local police teams, along with specialised women’s police units, will patrol these areas to prevent crimes against women.

Noida, emerging as a 24-hour city, has seen a rise in working women and female students, making women’s safety a key priority.
