The Special Police Unit
for women and children (SPUWAC) earlier known as Crime Women Cell,
was set up
in 2009 to give more sympathetic response to women and children complaints on
priority basis. Further to empower women
through exposure (demonstration) and training in techniques of Martial Arts, Self-Defense
training was started in the year-2002 by this unit. During the Self-Defence training the
participants are also being trained how to make use of things like Dupatta, Pen
& Handbags to protect themselves from attacks by anti social elements,
chain or bag snatching, criminal assault etc.
The training helps in building up the self esteem of students/women so
that they do not feel vulnerable & humiliated.
