Students and alumni of Delhi’s Lady Shri Ram College, alongside local mothers and professionals, gathered to protest against sexual violence and safety lapses around the campus. Protesters highlighted recent rape incidents, demanding urgent institutional and governmental action. Speakers raised serious concerns regarding safety around the college’s back gate and Amar Colony, noting the total absence of streetlights, non-functional pink police booths, and a lack of CCTV cameras. An alumna highlighted the persistent fear of stepping out after dark and the risks of harassment along daily transit routes. Current students voiced frustration over the lack of active policing, claiming that harassment remains rampant near Moolchand and college back lanes. Additionally, students pointed out that the college’s Internal Complaints Committee is not functional, urging authorities to ensure active police deployment, working pink booths, and adequate lighting to safeguard women.
