The security force has tasked its women officials and commandos posted in the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) network to not only help female passengers who travel late in night within the station area but also assist them in hiring local transport like an auto, rickshaw or a bus to their place of residence.
The force has deployed over 4,800 personnel (both men and women) to secure 136 stations of the DMRC in Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad and Gurgaon.

"We have asked our women personnel to help female passengers who have to travel late in the night. They (women personnel) will help them in select stations which get secluded during night. As part of these measures, our women personnel even note down the number of the auto or the public transport vehicle in which the women passengers were seen off by them.
"This creates a psychological effect in the minds of people that they are being watched and tracked when they are dealing with women passengers and it also gives women a better sense of security," CISF director general Arvind Ranjan told reporters during an annual conference on the eve of the forces' 46th Raising Day here.
The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) chief said the force, in order to enhance women security, has also deployed an elite squad of women commandos to help female commuters in distress in the Metro network.
Ranjan said the force is increasingly relying on the coverage provided by CCTV cameras in stations to detect any "unusual behaviour" or suspect act in the rapid rail network of the national capital which witnesses approximately 26 lakh footfalls every day.
"We are in the process of deploying more CCTV cameras in Delhi metro stations. This has given us an edge earlier as we detected about 180 instances where people were noticed to be in a disturbed state of mind.
"CISF teams rushed to attend to such passengers. We avoided many mishaps due to CCTV monitoring. More than 500 cases of people illegally walking on tracks were detected last year due to CCTV surveillance," he said.
