Ensure female students’ safety

Dear Sir,

Napoleon Bonaparte once said, “Give me an educated mother and I shall promise you an educated nation.” This reminds us that today’s female students are the foundation of tomorrow’s society. Therefore, ensuring their safety is a national responsibility.

Unfortunately, many female students still face harassment, cyberbullying, unsafe transport and social restrictions both inside and outside educational institutions. These challenges create fear and insecurity, affecting their education and confidence.

Educational institutions, families and society must work together to ensure proper security, strict action against harassment and awareness about respect and equality. Protecting female students means protecting the future of the nation.
