Kriti Sanon raises alarm on women’s safety amid daughters’ day celebrations
On the occasion of Daughters’ Day, actress Kriti Sanon raised important questions about women’s safety through social media. She said that along with celebrating Daughters’ Day, society should also consider how many young women today have to be constantly vigilant about their safety in public places.
Kriti explained that sharing live location, carrying pepper spray, taking a cab instead of walking alone, or calling someone to feel safe have become a part of many women’s lives today. She questioned how a daughter’s family would feel if they called to report that some people were following her or that she was repeatedly looking back while returning home alone.
The actress said that Daughters’ Day will only have true meaning when women can live their lives without fear in public places.
In her message, Kriti emphasized the need for a society where women can return home alone at night, sit in parks after dark, wear clothes of their choice, and use public transportation without fear. She expressed hope that the day will come when daughters will no longer have to repeatedly send messages confirming their location after arriving safely.
Kriti’s post has sparked a discussion on social media about women’s safety and society’s responsibility.
