The Uttar Pradesh State Women’s Commission has put forth recommendations to improve women's safety in the Indian state. These proposals include measures such as preventing male tailors from taking women’s measurements and barring men from training women in gyms or yoga sessions.

The commission has also recommended that female security personnel should be placed on school buses. As per the commission's proposal, recruiting more female staff at women’s clothing stores will improve their&nbsp;safety.

These suggestions were presented in a meeting held on October 28 in Lucknow, where commission members explored various ways to improve women's safety, The Times of India reported.

“The discussions are preliminary. Feasibility of these proposals is yet to be decided. Once approved, these proposals will be submitted to the govt to draft a policy for ground-level implementation,” a commission member was cited saying by The Times of India.

Meanwhile, Shamli district probation officer Hamid Hussain has asked local businesses to start implementing new safety measures including hiring female trainers or instructors in gyms, drama, and yoga centres for women, as well as installing CCTV systems with DVRs.

Hussain told TOI that school buses will now need to have a female security guard or teacher. Meanwhile, boutiques are directed to hire female tailors to take measurements of women, with CCTV cameras in place for added security.

“Boutique centres must employ female tailors for taking measurements of women, with active CCTV monitoring. Additionally, coaching centres are required to have CCTV surveillance and proper restroom facilities. Stores selling women-specific clothing and accessories must also employ female staff to assist customers,” Hussain said.&nbsp;
