Protect women, all phones in India will have a 'panic button'

Lindungi perempuan, semua ponsel di India akan punya 'tombol panik' 


In modern times, violence and crime are still very rampant, especially against women. Although there are many ways to protect themselves, such as self-defense classes, carrying objects that could be used against criminals, or many other ways.

However, what if the woman out of the house armed with smartphones and money? To protect the women, India has a plan that is different from other countries.


As reported by the Uber Gizmo, Maneka Gandhi, as the Minister of Women and Child Protection, said that a wide range of mobile phones in India will be equipped with a panic button. According to the Times of India, Maneka Gandhi said that this feature will be available to all phones within the next 6 months.


"All of the new phones will be made with panic buttons. But for the old phone, you can bring to the company or seller, so your phone to be adjusted. If a woman is in trouble, he can press a button on the phone and will soon get help," said Gandhi.


Actually, the panic button has been there before. Large companies will apply the Apple eg alarm 'panic mode' if there are users who encounter hazardous situations.


However, if in India, long time mobile phone users do not need to buy a new phone to have this panic button. Thus, everyone can get the same service, not just the upper middle class only.
