The Women and Child Protection Organization has already presented the proposal and is likely to be implemented soon after the approval of the state government.

According to a state government spokesman, the Safe City project is to be completed in three phases in Uttar Pradesh.

In the first phase of the project, Pink Booths will be constructed at 20 religious places spread across nine UP cities while two GPS-equipped pink scooters each will be handed over to 1100 women beat constables in 550 police stations under 17 municipal corporations and Gautam Buddha Nagar within the next three months. In the second phase, 501 Pink Booths will be built in municipal bodies under 57 district headquarters and in the third phase, 2,480 Pink Booths will be connected with the Safe City Project in the remaining 143 municipal bodies.

Since most of the nine district administrations have come forward with the land options, the construction work would begin as soon as the budget was released by the Home Department.
