The ministry is committed to establishing platforms where women can learn how to defend themselves from self defence experts. Furthermore, it is critical to create a safer environment for women in order to ensure the safety and integrity of the country’s female workforce, and this is a small step in the right direction. We hope this pilot is a successful one and we are able to take these sessions to other ministries, departments, schools and organisations in a more structured and outcome based workshop.”

 

Commenting on the initiative, Mr Tahsin Zahid, CEO, Sports, Physical Education, Fitness & Leisure Skills Council, said, “A safer environment for women is the need of the hour, initiatives like these are the step in the right direction.
