Besides controlling crime against women, SHE Teams must also extend support to victims by instilling confidence in them. The DCP instructed the staff to respond immediately to Dial 100 calls and alert officials. Instructing to intensify vigilance in the localities where women stay and gather in big numbers besides in bus stands and buses, he wanted the teams to educate women about the Hawkeye technology.

Instead of confining to awareness programmes and counselling, SHE Teams should enhance the image of the Police Department by controlling crime against women, he said.
