So Mumbai is a safer city after all!

It is not the dress aone that matters. The semi nude woman may attract intention of passers by but she has no risk in croded place. But even a fully clothed woman is at risk in lonely street, at odd hours and when noticed by lusty and criminal elements. 

Yes, I agree with Gulshan Kumar Sir.  It is very dangerous to walk or go alone.  In every city, there are the dirty and lustful guys always ready to create trouble.  One should be doubly careful.

Dress plays an important role in women life. We cannot give assurance to women who is wearing a skirt and top. The video is taken on the day time we should see the result in night also. As per the video if you concern Mumbai is a safe place to live for women then why there are so many incidents and abuse are happening in the city. Every city is a good city to live but the people who are in a mood of thinking women and making abuse will cause the damage to the city.

Dress is not the matter of concern here. She has been walking through crowded streets all the day. The time and situations are not suitable for bad guys. Hence the assessment about the safety of the city cannot be concluded.  I think the team has intentionally avoided lonely streets, because in that case the secret video shooting would have been impossible.

All the views are well taken.  However, the fact remains that Mumbai is a truly westernized city.  The people out there are very modern, and do not have the time to bother about others.  I have seen this in person, as I have lived in Mumbai for around two years. 

I dare say that the men are very good, and dress is least important in Mumbai.  Women of various ages do wear all sorts of clothes, but the city is very safe.

Some incidents have happened, but Bangalore, for example, is worse. 

What about New Delhi, which is the worst place for women?

So, I will always say that Mumbai is the best place for the safety of the woman.

Every place is a safe place until proven otherwise. Until yesterday, B'lure was supposed to be the safest city. But about the recent happenings there I need not tell you here. A video shot under certainconditions doesn't speak of anything.

Very true ,B'lore was safe at least we all were under this impression, but we were proved wrong. We can't say for sure now if any city is absolutely safe for girls and women.

Changing attitudes, life style and exposure to the global scenario are responsible in tilting the balance. Yeesterday's safe haven changes in to a Devil's Den,

No city was ever safe. It is only now that with electronic media coverage and English medium medias also covering rape stories that suddenly cities look unsafe. Earlier on the educated class was conveniently able to ignore but cannot do so now.

I agree to this as previously also crime against women was rampant but it is now that women are no longer keeping mum about it. They are coming to the fore to complain, which is a good thing. Only awareness among commoners can help fight criminals in our society.

In the present condions rampant atrocities, even in remote places, it's , women should erase the self drawn boundaries in the name of traditions, and save themselves from these atrocities. Though more women are coming out in to the open, there's still to be done.

Rape cases have increased , or it could be that ladies are filing complaints regardless of the public opinion. When the law and order situation is bad in any city , criminal elements are emboldened which is the case with cities like Bangalore and Delhi . But , Mumbai has always been a safe city for ladies .

We've heard the proverb "A chain is as strong as its weakest link."

Maybe "A city is as decent as its dirtiest criminal"
