Women cried for help

During crowd control exercise, many young women, some of them weeping, started to run towards women police officers, an eyewitness said.

Women who were caught in an unruly mob didn't have the protection of a helpful male friend or relative sought refuge with women cops on MG Road, another eyewitness added.

Bengaluru police had initially claimed to take all precautions to ensure an 'incident-free' New Year but these incidents made Bengaluru's head hang in shame.

The girls are main cause for this disturbance. It is shame that these girls went to enjoy and there is no fault of the boys. They girls are half naked and inviting. Gilrls should keep their modesty and not roam on the roads in the night with half naked dresses. These girls actually went to enjoy with whoever she can. Nonde will disturb them if they dress in decent manner and keep away from such areas. there is mistake of boys also, but 50 percent fault is of these girls. I think this will be a good lesson for them and they will take care in the future. They will learn only while such issue occurs. I dont feel sorry for this. However, the culprits should be punished and girls should be given warning by Police to dress in a nmodest way and be away from such places at nights. this is a lesson for the parents also who have let free their daughters to enjoy in the night time. May be their parents enjoying with others and have no time to look after their grown up kids. Shame on every one.
