How to save the small girls

Yes, so far such incidents were not reported in B'lore..and it was considered as safe city. Suddenly, small girls are falling prey to molesters and rape convicts. It is unfortunate that schools authorities remain mum and try to cover up any such incidents. I think one of the solution is to give access to CCTV camera recordings in schools to every parent. But schools these days charge high fee and although claim to provide a secure environment, fail to do so. But not all parents can afford a school where CCTV camera recordings is installed. There should be some other measure that needs to be taken. It is sad that our country has progressed in many fields but the security of girls of any age is still questionable.

Yes, not only is security so bad, school managements even take it so lightly and even try to cover up.  Some really drastic measures are needed.  Can we have a IT solution where the CCTV cameras are linked to the principal's office and a person is always there to be on rounds as well? 

The rapers of small baby girls are really not of normal mind. They are psychopath and need be treated for mental disease.  

Seriously, what has gone into the minds of such men...we won't even know who is mentally sick and who is not. Because mental sickness is difficult to identify.

Police is asking every citizen address and working details and his name and recording it in their data. Schools getting benefits from the student's money. Some schools are worth for the money they are spending. But why can't school's send a sms to their parents to get to know the status of their children whether they are reached home or not?. School management should appoint a person to check the driver details and send the information to the parents. If they charge any amount for this definitely parents will give that money because their children safety is their first choice. Within the premises school management should take care of the children's safety. I think there is only one solution school should use the bio metric system. All students should enter the finger impression on the bio metric machine and enter the class. No student can go outside without the permission of the class teacher. If students all playing in the ground cctv camera should watch the children and their safety. School management should not allow drunken watchman or any person who is working in the school. Practically to bring all these things immediately is quite impossible but it is one of the solution to do so. If every people is good there is no need to bring these facilities but we do not know where the person watching the girls The real pity behind this is if women get affected or molested they can say what happened to them but children cannot able to express it as like women. The culprit should be punished severely.

The solution to this disgusting disease that has invaded our society lies in more vigilance and interest on the part of parents. Truth is, with both parents working, they have not much time to observe or understand what their children might be undergoing outside of their homes. Technological interventions such as GPS, biometric systems to track a child etc. is all fine and would work well but there will always be a way around them for the perpetrators to commit heinous crimes on small children without getting caught. I had put a suggestion during a meeting in my son's school that parents take up voluntary duties on rotational basis to accompany the school bus attendant during each pick-up and drop. This will ensure that the bus driver and attendant have a check on them at all times. With most parents working, still taking one day off to help with such duties is not a big deal, but no one wants to do it. 

Thank you Kalyani Nandurkar.  This is an excellent suggestion.  Parents who stay near the school and go for work, can do this.  More importantly, if the school has up to standard ten or twelth standard, why not ask a senior student to do this job.  May be, one teacher can also accompany the student.  The security guard should also keep a keen watch on whether the exact number of children board the bus.  Apart from this, at the end of the day, it is wise to guard the rest rooms, as children tend to go to these places after the classes are over, before they get to board the bus. 

This is also the time when the attendants and dirty elements get the opportunity to lure away small girls.  So, the solutions should be many.

Installing CCTV cameras and accompanying the school students could control such crimes to a large extent. However, there were many cases where little girls were molested outside the school campus or school bus. So, I feel that girls should be taught to avoid potential molesters and rapist when they are still young. For instance, little girls can be taught to scream if any man or boy is trying to act smart with them. They can also be told to avoid going out alone

All the suggestions may work only when students are outside the school premises. However, the security of children esp girls is still under threat within the school premises. The recent case in b'lore took place inside the school premises, to curb that a thorough back ground check of people - which includes every staff should be made mandatory. After all it is not possible to guard our children 24x7, is it? And yes children should the difference of good touch and bad touch, it is least a parent can do.

Kudos to that particular gentleman.  And to top it all, he is a software engineer!  Well, we hear stories that such software engineers are always self-centered and very selfish.  What a myth!

Regarding the CCTV, please do note that the police always relies on such things to catch the culprits.  Another suggestion.  Can we have the CCTV also installed in at least two establishments near the school, so that they can never escape?  You see, they need to enter the school anyway,  and the CCTV will capture their images.

The teachers should also be more careful.  Another simple suggestion.  If there are some young girls, who are unemployed, they can be employed by parents, for just Rs.100/- per month, per child.  In this fashion, if they are entrusted with the job of taking care of 60 children, they will earn six thousand rupees in the bargain.  Officially, they may be given identity passes by the school authorities, and they may also accompany the children in the buses and become with all the bus stops so that someone comes to pick up the children.

When parents spend huge amounts on education, am sure they will not mind spending this small amount.  The girls need to come in the morning and in the evening.  That is about all.  They will do the job with the maximum sincerity, as they will get the salary from the parents, not the school.

There is a saying, "Forewarned is forearmed.". This should be applied in our lives. In this regard, both parents and teachers have a major role.
