Keeping in mind the increasing crime rate against the fairer sex, Shri Kamal Pant, Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru formed an all women team called “ Rani Chennamma Pade“ with the powerful motto : “ By Women, For Women, Of Women.”
This team comprising of specially trained 31 women officers under the supervision of Shri Srinath Mahadev Joshi (IPS), Deputy Commissioner of Police, South East Division will tackle situations of law and order involving women and children.
We, at MIS were indeed fortunate to have this team in our campus to spread awareness amidst our students.
Sr. Rosevera, our Principal welcomed the Chief Guest Ms. Laxmi (PSI, Bandepalya), Mr. Somanatha N N (PSI, Adugodi) and other police personnel. Sister in her welcome note, congratulated the team for the progressive step taken by them to ensure the safety and security of women and children in the city.
The team apprised the students of Std 8 and 9 the various child related laws such as POSCO , NDPS Act etc, as well as how to lodge complaints in case of criminal incidents against them. The team spoke on various sensitive issues like child marriages, child harassment, girl child safety, Suraksha App, cyber crimes etc. They also shared toll free numbers with the students in case of any untoward incidents.
An interactive session with real life scenarios enhanced the understanding of the students. Kumari Bindu of Std 9 acknowledged the efforts of the team with a word of gratitude.
