NEW DELHI: The Centre on Thursday approved projects worth Rs 2,919 crore under the Nirbhaya Fund for creating “safe cities” with special focus on women safety in public spaces and quick response systems to create deterrence against crime.

Eight cities where these initiatives will take shape include Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Lucknow. Between 2013 and 2017, the corpus of Nirbhaya Fund has grown to Rs 3,100 crore.

Another Rs 500 crore has been set aside for it for 2018-19. The empowered committee of officers also approved user trial of the panic button feature on mobile phones in Uttar Pradesh that will start sometime later this month. It has also sanctioned setting up of a model forensic science laboratory in Chandigarh.

Plans for safe cities have been prepared in coordination with municipal corporations and police commissionerates of these cities. For instance, in Delhi a project worth Rs 663 crore has been approved to enhance safety of public places like roads, schools and metro stations. The project includes use of latest technology such as video monitoring, facial recognition analytics, and person tracking systems.
