Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament (MP) Fauzia Khan on Tuesday pitched for institutional reforms and improved workplace facilities, including the creche, to address challenges faced by women in security forces.

According to news agency PTI, the Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar) lawmaker raised the issue during the Zero Hour in the Upper House. Khan recalled that after the tragic stampede at the New Delhi railway station on February 15, a photo went viral, showing a woman Railway Protection Force (RPF) constable patrolling the station with her one-year-old child strapped to her chest.
