Lucknow — In an effort to promote awareness about women’s safety and rights, the Lucknow Police Commissionerate organized a series of programs under Mission Shakti Abhiyan Phase-5. The awareness campaigns, held at S. R. International School and School ITI College Neera and St. Joseph Public School in the Parani Ka Talav and Aliganj areas, aimed to educate women and girl students about their rights, available security services, and government schemes designed for their protection.
The program at S. R.

Students, teachers, and police personnel came together for the initiative, which focused on creating awareness about various services available to women for their safety and well-being.
A similar program was held at Neera St. Joseph Public School in Aliganj, where students were informed about their rights and educated on the ways they can ensure their personal safety. Women police officials namely Ashi Gupta and others of Thana Aliganj were also present, contributing to the discussions.
During both events, police officials explained key services provided by the Uttar Pradesh Police, such as:
- 1090 Women Helpline
- 112 Emergency Services
- Women Power Line
They also discussed the use of Smart City Cameras and increased Field Police Patrolling, which are active in Lucknow as part of ongoing efforts to make public spaces safer for women.
The core objective of the Mission Shakti campaign is to educate women about their rights and the officers they can approach for help. By leveraging these resources, the program aims to promote respect, security, and equality for women across the city. The event also underscored the importance of women’s access to government schemes, which provide protection and support in times of need.
Police officers emphasized that these initiatives are part of a larger campaign by the UP Police to empower women and ensure their safety through a variety of accessible services.
