Forgotten promise
Forgotten promise
Grapevine The Pioneer http://www.dailypioneer.com Monday, August 26, 2013 After announcing his decision to launch a 24x7 helpline for the safety and assistance of tourists, including foreigners, early this year with much fanfare, Union Tourism Minister K Chiranjeevi is silent about its fate. Except issuing statements after every crime reported against a foreigner, the Minister has not spoken a word on the status of the helpline that was proposed to be kicked off from April.

Forgotten promise
Tourist travel to india is down 25 percent because of the epidemic of gangrapes. Those outsiders who must go there and/or can afford it are hiring body gaurds. It will not change with new people in government unless the approach is to change the basic mentallity toward women. This includes the police taking seriously the charge of rape and protecting the victim. Then perhaps the 60 percent of rapes that go unreported will change. |
