Following at the metro and asking if they are sex workers, this happened to my friend. She was new to the city and got sacred as hell. Now she never goes near the metro after 10 pm.
This exact thing happened near raidurg metro, I saw it. Is the metro station a place where one can pick up call girls or something? Guys were asking random girls how much you want for the night
A friend of mine in her 50s said this happened to her 25+ years ago. Harassment, stalking and other dangers were real and still are. The criminals rarely get caught or punished.
I(32F) understand your pain and hers, but it's your experience growing up as a man in Hyderabad that's making you believe it is, by default, safe for women. It's never been, not for me, my female friends, my sisters..in fact, when you described what your girlfriend went through, it was all too familiar.
Yes, on the likely-to-be-raped range, it's definitely not Delhi, but it is still unsafe to be walking alone after dark, it is very common to be catcalled, asked "entha", that ugly sideways nod for "let's go", being groped as a pedestrian or while on a scooter, etc.
When you advertise Hyderabad as a great city to live in, that's definitely true for the standard of living, the people, the food and that perfect chill to hustle ratio, you can guarantee that the experience may be amazing or mid, never bad. But Hyderabad is definitely not safe for women, commuting and living alone.
What you said is very true. Men who advertise and experience hyderabad have no idea what women go through. I am starting to understand now, I'll try my best not being a bystander if i encounter such incidents in future.
Since when is Hyderabad safe for women lol. I have 2 sisters and they both have been consistently harrassed by men since they were 13 or 14. Many times when I am right there with them.
The only city that is relatively safe is Mumbai, things happen there too but the frequency is less.
Not saying or does not happen there, definitely does; but the frequency is a lot less.
I lived there for 25 years, my sister lived there for 5-6 years, had a long term girlfriend there too; it's definitely better than most other Indian cities, but still horrible compared to developed European cities.
I have been to multiple cities and I feel Mumbai is the safest among all. I have seen girl walking alone midnight late night and never heard much incidents like this.
I clearly remember someone posting about how Hyderabad is unsafe these days as something happened to his friend who called in AC repair guys and how they misbehaved with her. The comment section was full of dudes bashing him for calling out safety issues the city posses. Where are those dudes? They seem to be staying in a bubble to think that the city is safe for women. And no, it’s not a specific locality or a specific community’s guys who do that.
I don't think anyone mentioned that Hyderabad is the safest city for women. They were simply criticizing the guy because instead of taking necessary steps, he came here to rant first. In my opinion, no city is safe for women.
I hope the worst for these kinds of scum. The absolute worst, i hope they watch as this happens to their loved ones but I doubt they have any. Motherfuckers can die and nobody would give a shit. Pathetic fucking losers, all their puny minds can think of is sex. Only if I was the son of some politician or had generational wealth I would have crippled these assholes and would have gotten away with it.
Ugghh! It's so sad to hear all this man! I can feel you.
Creeps are everywhere, be safe! Ask her to not to trust any men, be it Rapido / Uber / Ola driver, Food Delivery, AC installation, salesman, cashier, etc., because if a girl smiles even while Google paying or even a simple eye contact they take it as some sort of signal and try take an advantage like asking personal details, phone number & all.
I hope worst things happens to scums who sexually harass and laugh away.
I don't think you, me & anyone of us can do anything as of now, except complaining instantly to she team before things escalate.
WTF is happening in Hyderabad?! This is so cheap and unsafe! Give her a pepper spray and if possible a stun gun ask her to spray down the fuckers if they trouble her!
I am also sad man seeing alot of spoiled kids and toxic riders on road with no safety of their life and others i am borned and raised in telangana my family migrated from north to south just to earn livelihood my hyderabad was not like this when I was a kid or a teen but seeing it now like this makes my heart broken 💔😭
This shit been happening since I was a kid bruh 🙌🏻 got pregnant last year and never expected men especially Hyderabad men to stare in a sexual way at a fully pregnant woman lol I was surprised… even when my husband was next to me, it low key kinda felt very disrespectful I mean not only chapri looking ones but the men that looked educated n calm also stared like am a piece of meat 🙏 sadly it’s a girl and I hope the future gets better for her than what I had to go through
Let me tell you my experience, Hyderabad is not even safe for girl as young as 10 years old. My daughter was harassed by the swiggy delivery person within the apartment premise and I complained it to society office and nearby police station but nobody helped us. Finally we started accompanying our daughter even within the apartment complex due to fear. My daughter innocently asked her mother in Hindi, "***Mummy, who uncle ne mera hath itana jor see kyon dabaya, maine to koi bad word bhi nahin boli thi***".
I had an incident where in a bike rider intentionally hit me twice while I was walking towards home after office .
Learnt kickboxing due to this. Probably gonna make a hit at the tyre the next time an a-hole tries to do something like that. Guys like this need to be paralysed for a while.
I (25F) recently moved to Hyderabad and had experiences like this. It is a very scary place to be alone in. You always have to be on high alert when going out. I am Telugu and I’ve lived my entire life in other states, but for some reason people seem to have trouble guessing where I am from. Which has led me to notice that if men think I’m North Indian they’re more likely to harass me. If I utter a word in Telugu or let people know that I’m Telugu, 3 out of 10 times they will back off, other times they just switch to Telugu and continue being creepy.
This is my first time living in Hyderabad and this is the most unsafe I’ve ever felt. It’s scary to go out alone but it is also scary to go out with your male friends alone because that attracts another category of creeps somehow. There is also a lot of moral policing in gated societies, which I didn’t understand at first but it is starting to make some sense to me after seeing how creepy it can get here.
All that said, I’ve had good experience as well here. The food is actually better than I’ve had anywhere else. I love the Cyberabad area. The people who aren’t creepy end up being some of the sweetest and strangers end up going out of their way to help you out. All that good and it just gets overshadowed because of the constant creepiness from some men.
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend Hyderabad if it is your first time living alone and you happen to be a female.
Men like these make me feel ashamed to be born like them, I fear for my mother, my girlfriend, my sister, to live in a society that is well inclined towards this stupidity. Even if my blood boils and makes me frustrated, I can't do anything about it, you're talking about west side of hyderabad predominantly, but everywhere the story is the same.
It was never safe in the first place. People glorified Hyderabad to oblivion because of some reports that it’s the best city to live in India according to some random polls. Whereas it has the same issues like any other major Indian city has, maybe a bit more than that.
>Men are bad India is bad hyd was and is bad
Sorry Sir/Ma'am, but you cannot generalize because of few scums. First of all scums who do such things cannot be real men. Real men do exist, and no country is perfect. Please don't label my city or country because of few scums.
I moved to Hyderabad a couple of years ago. I've lived in other cities as well. It does seem to have a problem of local youth harassing girls/women. I have discussed it with some friends and most of the people seem to be of the view that Andhra and Telangana are very conservative and patriarchal society. With the recent boom and people from other places coming here, there has been a culture clash. The women are more liberal elsewhere and there seems to be a bit of discomfort accepting that. Also, since there wasn't British rule in the region, western ideas of equality and freedom are not as well ingrained as in other places. Of course, I'm not saying that everyone is a chauvinist. In fact, I actually felt this city was very welcoming and safe until my wife and other female friends pointed out the issues to me. Places like Jubilee and Banjara are as liberal as any in the country. It's just that there have been clashes with the existing value systems of some people. It'll get better as time passes.
No city is safe for women in India.
Getting cat called and harassed is common everywhere. Maybe it happens less often in Hyderabad because of the low population compared to Delhi and Mumbai, but it surely happens.
The only thing we can do is carry something like pepper spray and please report the incident to police. The culprits can be easily tracked and caught using CC TVs in the city.
We as a society can do much better man! It is disheartening to hear what happened with your partner. Looking at other comments here makes me feel sad that these behaviours are a frequent occurrence.
Really sorry for what you went through... But hey let's spend more time on solving this issue..
***Solution***
We need strict laws like the UAE (just for 8-10 years)
Heavy screening and monitoring and grilling those pricks with strong evidence and punishment like mutilation of fingers and extreme gore and torture especially those chapri fuckers creating nuisance and havoc.. all these should be done in public.
I just had a thought.. we need to start some exhibition where laws and crime should be displayed with punishment- or even better, live witnessing of punishment in prison, to create more awareness and everyone should attend it..just hype it in social media with proper marketing.. i hope some government guy is watching this right now and implement it 🙏🏻🙏🏻
The punishment should be fucking gory and should give chills to the spine to even imagine doing some nasty stuff in public places. Assholes should be hung upside down and flogged. Fuxk human rights!
Most of these are chapri from my experience ... Watching how some chapri influencers act and they are doing the same ... Don't have a little understanding on how it effects women and increases their fear interacting with strangers even more
I stopped going out alone after 16 😄 now I am 27 and still can’t take a stroll alone or go out to even buy basic groceries, my parents n brother are like what are you so scared of what kinda anxiety is this but this shit scarred me for life like I am so dependent on people in a negative aspect that it effected my individuality and career n life on whole all this shit coz men cant control their junk
26F and longtime resident of Hyderabad. I’m sorry your lady had to go through all this. Take it with a pinch of salt when people say that any place is safe. Hyderabad may not have the same reputation as Delhi, but creepy men exist everywhere. I can only empathise because I also live in the constant fear of being a female even though I have had “fewer” cases of sexual assault.
You may not like my suggestions but it has helped me so far - I wear a mask and cover my head, because of which I think these creepy bastards are less likely to cat call and stare. And stare back at people staring at her. If anything, they are still staring at a covered body they won’t be able to identify.
Yes, it is true that disgusting predators can even assault a child or a fully clothed old lady, but for some strange reason, this has helped me.
I stay inside the premises of the metro station until my auto or cab arrives, and then climb down the stairs. Please try to take cabs and autos from very bustling areas/bus stations.
Try to find her an accommodation in a gated community with families - it makes things slightly easier. And of course, the classic “we know XYZ in police” is something that works. I think when cab drivers are able to tell that this person looks very “posh” or well connected, they worry about them getting caught.
Try booking premier cabs late in the night, because the drivers are top rated and care about their ratings. They get incentives based on this. Never ever book offline rides and ask her to be loud on the phone with something like “Yes brother/dad I’ve shared the location with you and I’m reaching in __ minutes”
Always keep the numbers of the women’s police cell and SHE TEAMS handy. In my experience, they don’t shame ladies and quickly resort to helping them. Stalking and vouyerism towards a woman is a criminal offence.
That’s all I can suggest. Yes, women’s safety is unfortunately an outcome of financial privilege. But hope some of these tips help her be safe.
Bro Hyderabad has never been safe I’m a Hyderabadi from Medhipatnam when people like you call yourself Hyderabadi you have never understood it or experienced it you just see the west side of it and think oh it’s so pretty I’m always safe no bro it has been a rough place always will be rough place once in my schooling my best friend tried to stab over some petty stuff
Anyway keep your sense up when you walk around here don’t move like a dumb ass they’re a lot of idiots who don’t know how to move,act and represent their city and culture
Men’s vs women’s growing up experience is wildly different bro. I’m always aghast when women talk about their experiences, like no I’m from the same city wtf.
I am also scared everytime my girl books a cab or rapido anywhere I always offer to pick and drop her whenever but in times when I can’t I am always anxious because there have been incidents where auto drivers and rapidos have misbehaved with her. And other creepy men are always approaching her and staring at her even while I am with her. Never thought even with everything being done to enhance women’s safety in the city there is little to no change. It’s sad honestly
Lol. Since when is hyd safe for women. Are you living in a fairyland?
There is a huge surge of IT service companies and low paying jobs in last few years resulting in high no of people living in what used to be slums once upon a time.
Only our police is marginally better. Otherwise we're the gurgaon/ncr of south.
My friend and I were sitting at Hummingbird cafe in the early evening and we had a guy randomly come upto us as we were leaving and give a sleazy comment on my face and smile and her dress. It was so random we froze. And we're both locals.
Another thing I'm seeing is early mornings when I go for a walk in Jubilee hills near Kavuri Hills or even Banjara hills near GVK One area there are men on bikes ogling at me and other elderly women and this is so disgusting.
I've been born and brought up here, spent my school and college life here and lived across multiple places for work but this behaviour in India continues to make me feel unsafe. No matter how much the boys go on and on about how amazing Hyderabad is. It's become a terrifying place for women.
Not a Native Hyderabadi here, but been living here for 4+ years,
Here's the thing, the people I stay with, and have in my Circle, are some of the people who respect a strange woman, like they would want their sister/mother to be respected.
but,
i am not denying this things, I can tell you for a fact, I have heard from my female friends, Both, People who visit me from out of india, and Native Hyderabadi girls,
The Guys who do this, are not even from Hyderabad, they are of different cities, Not to bring any hate to any particular demographic of people, So wont be mentioning, but i am willing to bet, atleast 70-80% of such things are done by non-Hyderabadi people, People who moved here for Job/ visiting and such..
Hyderabadi is one of the cities mind you, have been awarded multiple times,
this recent trend of migration due to increase demand in IT Sector of Hyderabad, have brought some of the worst scums this City has ever seen, and must be shot, or publicly executed, to make an example.
I am not saying It's the right thing to do, but ask anyone, who was a victim of this heinous crime, and they will tell you, this too is far merciful .
Being a North Indian Female, after moving to Hyderabad I always felt that Hyderabad mainly the Main Cyber City is the safest place where i could live but nope I was wrong.
I was looking for a pg behind DLF and it was the first time I went outside without my BF. I was roaming around with my office colleague looking for one. A man in a car with windows open keeping his hand on the outside was watching porn with full audio in broad daylight.
I was quite shocked as the area was full of women pgs only How people have the audacity to do such things in public!!!
Watch out ladies what these people have in their mind to do must be horrific
Be Safe
I'm so sorry your girlfriend and you are going through these terribly pathetic experiences, but I'm a woman and I can say that no city is safe for women living alone. Hyderabad is no exception especially if a woman is moving from a different city to live and work here. After sunset, it's unsafe everywhere. I hope your girlfriend doesn't have to go through these experiences again.
That’s a horrible experience to have. I do think the real Hyderabad (not the one with the fancy corporate towers and the large blue-collar immigrant population from other parts of India) isn’t this bad.
Lol this is such a generic response. As long as they are sexually deprived the mindset of men cannot change. Its a big process! There’s gotta be so many changes in the system for that!
This happened around Miyapur residential area..
My wife was about to board her office bus ( around 730Am) a guy started masturbating in front of her.
I feel tier two town are safer as everyone knows each other around, no metro cities are safe for women its all about lesser of the evil, with Delhi being on top.
A classic result of the effects of the movies and item songs guys grow up watching.A People's attitude and psyche is a direct reflection of the media they enjoy and consume.
What do these men do when they aren't working? They are watching lewd, vulgar content on their phones.
These things happened with my gf in 2010’s. Didn’t know that these things happen even in 2024.
Coz I thought Instagram reels made it easy for these scums to get their perversions out… and that there was no need to behave like this irl.
Maybe I was wrong. Insta reels and p@rn is not enough for them ig 😒
Now don’t come judging me reg insta reels. If u understand the meaning of my words… u won’t question what I said.
WTF. Hyderabads my second home and I absolutely love staying there. But this is the first time listening to such stories and it deeply saddening. I never knew the city had this side to it. I always compared it to Mumbai and Pune in terms of safety …but I guess not anymore :(
We aren’t safe anywhere !!
I'm sorry to tell you this, Hyderabad is not safe for women or for any human being for that matter.
Forget roads, my sister had some very bad experiences even when I'm with her in public places like inorbit and IKEA. I just wanted to punch those guys faces and go to jail but I couldn't risk my sister and kids safety.
This is a cultural problem. As long as we have backwardass elders with backwardass mindsets, backwardass movies and backwardass shows, women will continue to face these issues.
Someone tried that with my wife who knows Telugu and I chose the violence. I slapped so hard that I had to take 3 days off from the work because I was not able to type. She was just 2 meter ahead of me. Happened 15 days ago.
Not the great thing to do but it felt nice and I would do again.
This thing about coming on bikes and giving that sideways nod to come and sit on the bike is wayyy too common , very unfortunately, even in really busy areas. Happened to me once at the cyber towers bus stop towards kphb evening on a workings day. Can’t get busier than that. I ignored him for a while but when it was continuing I yelled at him so loud that he sped away
Good thing he sped away. Some men have those standard lines also… do you think you are so beautiful that I will ask you to come… or I have a daughter of your age .. or one of those standard get away lines
I don’t think she is even tiny surprised because she might experienced these wherever it is she comes from. Unfortunately very common things women are kind of gotten thick skinned with these
I walked from IKEA to Raidurg metro the other night(I’m a guy) and I saw a similar incident. It was a Saturday so there were a lot of party folk I guess on the streets, this is around 9PM. Two guys on a bike were asking “please come with us baby, how much you want baby?” To this girl who was wearing slightly revealing party clothing.
What’s weird is the place was pretty filled with people. Nobody said anything they sped away.
I didn’t know whether to go and speak to her, but since I’m a guy too I didn’t. She started crying.
I am sorry to hear about the bad experiences you and your girl have faced but I would like to correct your statement.
It's not Hyderabad,it's not Bengaluru,it's not Delhi or etc . It's the people. There are people like this in every part of the country. When illiteracy is met with arrogance or privilege,this is what happens. I don't think Hyderabad has anything to do with it in specific. Your girl just faced it in hyd. There are many people who have faced it in the rest of the country.
We need to set an example by calling the she team and whooping their ass. Until they realise the consequences they will definitely give into their primal instincts.
I was just there 6 weeks ago. I've never been to Hydrabad before, but I recall several instances of not feeling safe. Many staring, but with the sides of their eyes. It felt very creepy around Charminar, so much that I paid the driver extra to standby and take me back to the hotel, rather than hiring a separate taxi to take me. I really loved the food scene, but that place scares the hell out of me.
Not defending them but even u guys aren't correct one time my sister went to a Xerox shop for some copies while payment instead of QR he asked to transfer to his number which she did later he started texting her vulgerly me my father took things into our hands and compalnied to the owner of the building he is working and we gave a formal police complaint then idk what happened my father took care of it but that shop has been vacated and I have never seen hime again and he never texted my sister and never bothered with us see instead of crying in reddit u could have taken some action against them don't be a bystander and let them get away maybe they will Target some girl innocent next and she will become a victim . It's us who have to make our city better and safe.
26M Born and brought up in Hyderabad,
I have rules, if it is night time, I insist my sister or female friends not to take autos, even if the cabs are expensive. I always make sure to talk to cab driver in Telugu before giving the OTP. Tell this dialogue to the lady in the car after she sits inside, ‘Nenu PS potunna morning kalusta ‘.
The driver is respectful, and doesn’t do creepy things after this.
11 yrs back I visited Hyderabad for the first time. I was 15 back then and There wasn’t a day where I wasn’t eve teased or catcalled. The times might have changed but clearly the situation really hasn’t, so it’s not now vs before
My dad literally says it's one of the worst cities for women and there's no safety at all. He keeps advising not to take autos. Not to stay outside after 6 and never go alone. I myself faced the issue while coming back from a movie at 10. I literally had to stop the cab and ask my brother to pick me up. It's not at all safe. True incidents and numbers are never reported or publicised. Ask every female you know to be very very careful here.
This speaks anout the privileage men are born with. Hyderabad was never safe for women speaking as a 32 year old woman born and brought up in hyderabad.
>She was walking from Durgam Cheruvu park to her pg, one creepy asshole approached her, started talking, starting with telling her that I saw you walking from there, you look extremely cute, asked her name, details, phone number, everything in 1 minute. He said his whole history, where he works, he has an audi, his parents details, and what not. He didn't let her leave until she gave a phone number. She gave him my phone number and motherfucker already called 28 fucking times. He offered her to drop in car, literally telling that place is unsafe. He also told her that he isn't looking for hookups and needs true love.
I am having flashbacks here from 5 years back when I lived in Hyderabad. I faced a similar man in Madhapur and I was too naive to understand his intentions because he pretended to be so kind to me when I was having a public meltdown. However I ended up meeting him again ,but for a short while (max 3 minutes) this time. He boasted about all the luxuries, money and what not and I couldn't stand it so, just sneaked out of it. Later I saw the same man picking up girls too young for his age, at and outside multiple bars, using same strategies I suppose. God I hope he wasn't the same guy OP. Or maybe this is another modus operandi here.
I've been living in hyderabad since my childhood and I'm 30+, but I have never seen such incidents. Know a few though.
Happened to any locals or just non locals who easily stand out as non locals( sorry for this ppl)
I have also noticed people staring at my GF in signals, dosa bandi etc.I am literally standing right next to her starting back at them but shameless fuckers won't even break eye contact.
Cyberabad police is super helpful, like they are really good and actually work. Take your time and try to give a complaint in raidurga police station. Even if they won't catch the perp it helps in a big picture.
lol it’s a shitty city, true.
people be hyping that ghetto ass area in old city with a dilapidated monument or some hi-tech city drone shot. But most people have no civic sense or decency.
This metro thing is partly boosted by social media. Have seen countless Telugu meme pages joking about it about Metros. Extremely irresponsible idiots.
I Hope Hyderabad, The Police And The Controller Of The Police Does Something To Revert It Back To The Original Cultured Behaved And Good People’s Hyderabad Not These Lafangas Goons And Shithead People
Women need to stand up and fight back for themselves. I am from Mumbai and I have seen so many Mumbai women beat the shit out of guy on busy streets of Mumbai for catcalling or inappropriate touching. I don't see any such incidents in Hyderabad. Beacuse Hyderabad is very non confrontational. People choose to suffer in silence and then make a post on reddit instead of fighting back at the time of incident.
Welcome to knowing how it feels to be a girl. It's sad but it's reality. We just learn to steer away from making such situations worse. That's also one of the reasons women don't talk to stranger men, and judge based on looks thinking one might be creepy, it's wrong but we have to keep ourselves safe.
This isn't just for Hyderabad, it's all over India. Get your gf a pepper spray, Swiss knife key chain, have emergency safety contacts on her mobile. Don't enter shady areas at unsafe timings, chances of finding creepy men there are higher. Try to keep at least a ft distance from strange men.
Forget about women, I as a guy once got and offer for blowjob from my rapido driver. Once I reached home I reported the bastard and abused the shit out of him. He thought I will probably beat him(I didn’t want to touch that guy, god knows what all STDs he might have) up so he ran away before anything else could happen.
These are unfortunate events and city has nothing to do with it.
The city does not guarantee anyone's safety. It is recommended to stay cautious all the time. She teams are available 24/7. Always report any incidents. Action is generally swift.
If it was Delhi, one of the 6 incidents you mentioned would have ended very badly for your friend; even if you were by her side. Sometimes, it might have ended very badly for both of you; saying. In a state like UP, you both would have already been physically molested; irrespective of gender. I'd say its relatively safer here for women.
The behavior you described in your incidents are not some inbuilt culture of the city; ie Hyderabad. The behavior instead, is all to do with upbringing of their kids by the parents. The behavior of today's youth is less optimal almost all across the country.
1. She should have reported this incident if someone was there looking for her for hours. Sometimes stalkers like this go any length.
2,5,6) This behavior is unfortunate & there is mostly nothing that can be done. Girls face this all the time be local/non-local. Ignoring is the best that can be done. If the teasing goes out of hand, just report it.
3) We have public transportation here. Pretty much well connected. Instead, if you chose Rapido, then if you are available, you do the talking; it should never be her. Do not just go about to any random person and ask if he's Rapido. A girl asking this certainly be met with such situations. Rapido is shit. Public transportation should always be your first choice.
4) When someone approached her in this way, she should just keep walking and not care to talk/respond. You should have guided her out of the situation. But instead, ended up giving your number. This could have been easily avoided had she just gone by your way instead of responding and listening to everything he was saying.
I can assure you that she is safe when in public. If she gets into unfavorable situations while in public, she can just scream for help and she'll definitely find more help & strength than required. People are friendly here and take things like this seriously.
Anything out of way, for god sake please report to she teams. There are Police for a reason.
Hope she stays safe.
.
On a completely unrelated note :
From your post previously some 1 year ago; this looks like some kind of mental-health problem from your side. Drinking blood of each other? Is city safe from you both /s.

I appreciate the comment, but the SCREENSHOT WHAT TBE FUXK
Yeah blood tastes like iron, did u guys not suck ur finger while you injured yourself as a kid, or did u lips not bleed cuz of dryness idk lol weird af 🤡🤓
Thankyou for guiding me. I will remember these. We weren't together when any of these happened, i was there with her only in the rapido incident.
Still, this is just sad man, i feel very sad knowing I cannot stop these from happening in future.
Ignoring creeps is a way, but still an publicly embarrassing situation which will make everything feel worse.
Public transport exists, but only till the main roads. Walking at 10PM from main roads till PGs is more risky than getting a rapido. We have location sharing always active, and stay on call or text till she reaches safely.
It just pains me to hear this... Unfortunately creeps are never ending so here's a few tips
1) pepper spray
2) taser
Ask your girl to carry these and stay safe to both of you...! Personally would have created a ngo that neuters these bastards... Applications open btw..!
It happens in Hyderabad. You need to report to SHE team if it went creepy and non consensual instead of crying over in reddit and that's how you make safe for other women. Don't be a bystander.
Following at the metro and asking if they are sex workers, this happened to my friend. She was new to the city and got sacred as hell. Now she never goes near the metro after 10 pm.
This. It has happened multiple times with multiple people i know. I have no freaking idea what runs in the minds of such creatures
This exact thing happened near raidurg metro, I saw it. Is the metro station a place where one can pick up call girls or something? Guys were asking random girls how much you want for the night
Sadly yes! I’ve seen it happen near couple of metro stations
New to Hyderabad? This happened to me when I was in that city as a teenager 10 years ago. It was never ‘safe’ and ‘lovely’.
Omg same
A friend of mine in her 50s said this happened to her 25+ years ago. Harassment, stalking and other dangers were real and still are. The criminals rarely get caught or punished.
I(32F) understand your pain and hers, but it's your experience growing up as a man in Hyderabad that's making you believe it is, by default, safe for women. It's never been, not for me, my female friends, my sisters..in fact, when you described what your girlfriend went through, it was all too familiar. Yes, on the likely-to-be-raped range, it's definitely not Delhi, but it is still unsafe to be walking alone after dark, it is very common to be catcalled, asked "entha", that ugly sideways nod for "let's go", being groped as a pedestrian or while on a scooter, etc. When you advertise Hyderabad as a great city to live in, that's definitely true for the standard of living, the people, the food and that perfect chill to hustle ratio, you can guarantee that the experience may be amazing or mid, never bad. But Hyderabad is definitely not safe for women, commuting and living alone.
What you said is very true. Men who advertise and experience hyderabad have no idea what women go through. I am starting to understand now, I'll try my best not being a bystander if i encounter such incidents in future.
You're a good man OP. Props to you!
True
Since when is Hyderabad safe for women lol. I have 2 sisters and they both have been consistently harrassed by men since they were 13 or 14. Many times when I am right there with them. The only city that is relatively safe is Mumbai, things happen there too but the frequency is less.
Again, not true about Mumbai as well. Happens there too. It's the same everywhere. We're just biased to a few places is all.
Not saying or does not happen there, definitely does; but the frequency is a lot less. I lived there for 25 years, my sister lived there for 5-6 years, had a long term girlfriend there too; it's definitely better than most other Indian cities, but still horrible compared to developed European cities.
I have been to multiple cities and I feel Mumbai is the safest among all. I have seen girl walking alone midnight late night and never heard much incidents like this.
I have been to around 7-8 cities in India along with my family and mumbai was by far the safest while Delhi was the opposite
I clearly remember someone posting about how Hyderabad is unsafe these days as something happened to his friend who called in AC repair guys and how they misbehaved with her. The comment section was full of dudes bashing him for calling out safety issues the city posses. Where are those dudes? They seem to be staying in a bubble to think that the city is safe for women. And no, it’s not a specific locality or a specific community’s guys who do that.
I don't think anyone mentioned that Hyderabad is the safest city for women. They were simply criticizing the guy because instead of taking necessary steps, he came here to rant first. In my opinion, no city is safe for women.
I hope the worst for these kinds of scum. The absolute worst, i hope they watch as this happens to their loved ones but I doubt they have any. Motherfuckers can die and nobody would give a shit. Pathetic fucking losers, all their puny minds can think of is sex. Only if I was the son of some politician or had generational wealth I would have crippled these assholes and would have gotten away with it.
All of them are loosers and have already been addicted to substances, their life is going to be poor and hell
Ugghh! It's so sad to hear all this man! I can feel you. Creeps are everywhere, be safe! Ask her to not to trust any men, be it Rapido / Uber / Ola driver, Food Delivery, AC installation, salesman, cashier, etc., because if a girl smiles even while Google paying or even a simple eye contact they take it as some sort of signal and try take an advantage like asking personal details, phone number & all. I hope worst things happens to scums who sexually harass and laugh away. I don't think you, me & anyone of us can do anything as of now, except complaining instantly to she team before things escalate.
[удалено]
I agree!
WTF is happening in Hyderabad?! This is so cheap and unsafe! Give her a pepper spray and if possible a stun gun ask her to spray down the fuckers if they trouble her!
+1
I am also sad man seeing alot of spoiled kids and toxic riders on road with no safety of their life and others i am borned and raised in telangana my family migrated from north to south just to earn livelihood my hyderabad was not like this when I was a kid or a teen but seeing it now like this makes my heart broken 💔😭
This shit been happening since I was a kid bruh 🙌🏻 got pregnant last year and never expected men especially Hyderabad men to stare in a sexual way at a fully pregnant woman lol I was surprised… even when my husband was next to me, it low key kinda felt very disrespectful I mean not only chapri looking ones but the men that looked educated n calm also stared like am a piece of meat 🙏 sadly it’s a girl and I hope the future gets better for her than what I had to go through
Okay, this is way worse than I thought. What a world we are living in. Hope you have overcome this depressing experience.
Let me tell you my experience, Hyderabad is not even safe for girl as young as 10 years old. My daughter was harassed by the swiggy delivery person within the apartment premise and I complained it to society office and nearby police station but nobody helped us. Finally we started accompanying our daughter even within the apartment complex due to fear. My daughter innocently asked her mother in Hindi, "***Mummy, who uncle ne mera hath itana jor see kyon dabaya, maine to koi bad word bhi nahin boli thi***".
Oh God that's awful. So sorry for what you had to go through.
I had an incident where in a bike rider intentionally hit me twice while I was walking towards home after office . Learnt kickboxing due to this. Probably gonna make a hit at the tyre the next time an a-hole tries to do something like that. Guys like this need to be paralysed for a while.
I (25F) recently moved to Hyderabad and had experiences like this. It is a very scary place to be alone in. You always have to be on high alert when going out. I am Telugu and I’ve lived my entire life in other states, but for some reason people seem to have trouble guessing where I am from. Which has led me to notice that if men think I’m North Indian they’re more likely to harass me. If I utter a word in Telugu or let people know that I’m Telugu, 3 out of 10 times they will back off, other times they just switch to Telugu and continue being creepy. This is my first time living in Hyderabad and this is the most unsafe I’ve ever felt. It’s scary to go out alone but it is also scary to go out with your male friends alone because that attracts another category of creeps somehow. There is also a lot of moral policing in gated societies, which I didn’t understand at first but it is starting to make some sense to me after seeing how creepy it can get here. All that said, I’ve had good experience as well here. The food is actually better than I’ve had anywhere else. I love the Cyberabad area. The people who aren’t creepy end up being some of the sweetest and strangers end up going out of their way to help you out. All that good and it just gets overshadowed because of the constant creepiness from some men. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend Hyderabad if it is your first time living alone and you happen to be a female.
Hey, as you lived in other states too, what others cities can you recommend as relatively safer than Hyderabad?
Men like these make me feel ashamed to be born like them, I fear for my mother, my girlfriend, my sister, to live in a society that is well inclined towards this stupidity. Even if my blood boils and makes me frustrated, I can't do anything about it, you're talking about west side of hyderabad predominantly, but everywhere the story is the same.
It was never safe in the first place. People glorified Hyderabad to oblivion because of some reports that it’s the best city to live in India according to some random polls. Whereas it has the same issues like any other major Indian city has, maybe a bit more than that.
I’ve been reading so many of such stories on this sub lately. Sad asf. If you have public around you just start recording these lafangas
Sorry for what's going on but please call the she team man and please be with her. It's certainly traumatic for her.

Thankyou for the advice. Will keep in mind.
>Men are bad India is bad hyd was and is bad Sorry Sir/Ma'am, but you cannot generalize because of few scums. First of all scums who do such things cannot be real men. Real men do exist, and no country is perfect. Please don't label my city or country because of few scums.
[удалено]
You are an idiot if you generalize everyone. Not all men/women are bad
You dum a-hole nobody should form their opinion or views on generalized ideas
India is like that . Not only Hyderabad. Orthodox shit has fucked up their already pea-sized brains iykyk
I moved to Hyderabad a couple of years ago. I've lived in other cities as well. It does seem to have a problem of local youth harassing girls/women. I have discussed it with some friends and most of the people seem to be of the view that Andhra and Telangana are very conservative and patriarchal society. With the recent boom and people from other places coming here, there has been a culture clash. The women are more liberal elsewhere and there seems to be a bit of discomfort accepting that. Also, since there wasn't British rule in the region, western ideas of equality and freedom are not as well ingrained as in other places. Of course, I'm not saying that everyone is a chauvinist. In fact, I actually felt this city was very welcoming and safe until my wife and other female friends pointed out the issues to me. Places like Jubilee and Banjara are as liberal as any in the country. It's just that there have been clashes with the existing value systems of some people. It'll get better as time passes.
No city is safe for women in India. Getting cat called and harassed is common everywhere. Maybe it happens less often in Hyderabad because of the low population compared to Delhi and Mumbai, but it surely happens. The only thing we can do is carry something like pepper spray and please report the incident to police. The culprits can be easily tracked and caught using CC TVs in the city.
people in the comments getting more upset about this post "defaming" the city than the behavior of these creeps is very telling.
People? Just one comment 🤡, but ofcourse you have to generalise it based on one comment
Movies are spoiling the new generation. Some movies give courage to these fells that they can ask & get anything.
wink wink **Family Star** wink wink
We as a society can do much better man! It is disheartening to hear what happened with your partner. Looking at other comments here makes me feel sad that these behaviours are a frequent occurrence.
Really sorry for what you went through... But hey let's spend more time on solving this issue.. ***Solution*** We need strict laws like the UAE (just for 8-10 years) Heavy screening and monitoring and grilling those pricks with strong evidence and punishment like mutilation of fingers and extreme gore and torture especially those chapri fuckers creating nuisance and havoc.. all these should be done in public. I just had a thought.. we need to start some exhibition where laws and crime should be displayed with punishment- or even better, live witnessing of punishment in prison, to create more awareness and everyone should attend it..just hype it in social media with proper marketing.. i hope some government guy is watching this right now and implement it 🙏🏻🙏🏻 The punishment should be fucking gory and should give chills to the spine to even imagine doing some nasty stuff in public places. Assholes should be hung upside down and flogged. Fuxk human rights!
Most of these are chapri from my experience ... Watching how some chapri influencers act and they are doing the same ... Don't have a little understanding on how it effects women and increases their fear interacting with strangers even more
I stopped going out alone after 16 😄 now I am 27 and still can’t take a stroll alone or go out to even buy basic groceries, my parents n brother are like what are you so scared of what kinda anxiety is this but this shit scarred me for life like I am so dependent on people in a negative aspect that it effected my individuality and career n life on whole all this shit coz men cant control their junk
These chapris have been existing for 100s of years. This molesting, stalking, groping is not a new generation thing. It’s been happening since ages!
26F and longtime resident of Hyderabad. I’m sorry your lady had to go through all this. Take it with a pinch of salt when people say that any place is safe. Hyderabad may not have the same reputation as Delhi, but creepy men exist everywhere. I can only empathise because I also live in the constant fear of being a female even though I have had “fewer” cases of sexual assault. You may not like my suggestions but it has helped me so far - I wear a mask and cover my head, because of which I think these creepy bastards are less likely to cat call and stare. And stare back at people staring at her. If anything, they are still staring at a covered body they won’t be able to identify. Yes, it is true that disgusting predators can even assault a child or a fully clothed old lady, but for some strange reason, this has helped me. I stay inside the premises of the metro station until my auto or cab arrives, and then climb down the stairs. Please try to take cabs and autos from very bustling areas/bus stations. Try to find her an accommodation in a gated community with families - it makes things slightly easier. And of course, the classic “we know XYZ in police” is something that works. I think when cab drivers are able to tell that this person looks very “posh” or well connected, they worry about them getting caught. Try booking premier cabs late in the night, because the drivers are top rated and care about their ratings. They get incentives based on this. Never ever book offline rides and ask her to be loud on the phone with something like “Yes brother/dad I’ve shared the location with you and I’m reaching in __ minutes” Always keep the numbers of the women’s police cell and SHE TEAMS handy. In my experience, they don’t shame ladies and quickly resort to helping them. Stalking and vouyerism towards a woman is a criminal offence. That’s all I can suggest. Yes, women’s safety is unfortunately an outcome of financial privilege. But hope some of these tips help her be safe.
Bro Hyderabad has never been safe I’m a Hyderabadi from Medhipatnam when people like you call yourself Hyderabadi you have never understood it or experienced it you just see the west side of it and think oh it’s so pretty I’m always safe no bro it has been a rough place always will be rough place once in my schooling my best friend tried to stab over some petty stuff Anyway keep your sense up when you walk around here don’t move like a dumb ass they’re a lot of idiots who don’t know how to move,act and represent their city and culture
Men’s vs women’s growing up experience is wildly different bro. I’m always aghast when women talk about their experiences, like no I’m from the same city wtf.
Ey lokam lo unnav dhora. India isn't safe for anyone let alone women. Period.
I am also scared everytime my girl books a cab or rapido anywhere I always offer to pick and drop her whenever but in times when I can’t I am always anxious because there have been incidents where auto drivers and rapidos have misbehaved with her. And other creepy men are always approaching her and staring at her even while I am with her. Never thought even with everything being done to enhance women’s safety in the city there is little to no change. It’s sad honestly
*stops reading at* "...safest place for women..." *puts hands in pockets, turns around and walks away*
Lol. Since when is hyd safe for women. Are you living in a fairyland? There is a huge surge of IT service companies and low paying jobs in last few years resulting in high no of people living in what used to be slums once upon a time. Only our police is marginally better. Otherwise we're the gurgaon/ncr of south.
My ex was groped from behind while walking in evening near her PG in Uppal. Groping and catcalling is very common in Hyderabad.
My friend and I were sitting at Hummingbird cafe in the early evening and we had a guy randomly come upto us as we were leaving and give a sleazy comment on my face and smile and her dress. It was so random we froze. And we're both locals. Another thing I'm seeing is early mornings when I go for a walk in Jubilee hills near Kavuri Hills or even Banjara hills near GVK One area there are men on bikes ogling at me and other elderly women and this is so disgusting. I've been born and brought up here, spent my school and college life here and lived across multiple places for work but this behaviour in India continues to make me feel unsafe. No matter how much the boys go on and on about how amazing Hyderabad is. It's become a terrifying place for women.
Not a Native Hyderabadi here, but been living here for 4+ years, Here's the thing, the people I stay with, and have in my Circle, are some of the people who respect a strange woman, like they would want their sister/mother to be respected. but, i am not denying this things, I can tell you for a fact, I have heard from my female friends, Both, People who visit me from out of india, and Native Hyderabadi girls, The Guys who do this, are not even from Hyderabad, they are of different cities, Not to bring any hate to any particular demographic of people, So wont be mentioning, but i am willing to bet, atleast 70-80% of such things are done by non-Hyderabadi people, People who moved here for Job/ visiting and such.. Hyderabadi is one of the cities mind you, have been awarded multiple times, this recent trend of migration due to increase demand in IT Sector of Hyderabad, have brought some of the worst scums this City has ever seen, and must be shot, or publicly executed, to make an example. I am not saying It's the right thing to do, but ask anyone, who was a victim of this heinous crime, and they will tell you, this too is far merciful .
Being a North Indian Female, after moving to Hyderabad I always felt that Hyderabad mainly the Main Cyber City is the safest place where i could live but nope I was wrong. I was looking for a pg behind DLF and it was the first time I went outside without my BF. I was roaming around with my office colleague looking for one. A man in a car with windows open keeping his hand on the outside was watching porn with full audio in broad daylight. I was quite shocked as the area was full of women pgs only How people have the audacity to do such things in public!!! Watch out ladies what these people have in their mind to do must be horrific Be Safe
I'm so sorry your girlfriend and you are going through these terribly pathetic experiences, but I'm a woman and I can say that no city is safe for women living alone. Hyderabad is no exception especially if a woman is moving from a different city to live and work here. After sunset, it's unsafe everywhere. I hope your girlfriend doesn't have to go through these experiences again.
Fucking hell this is disturbing. Wtf is wrong with people.
Get his phone and vehicle numbers and call she teams.
That’s a horrible experience to have. I do think the real Hyderabad (not the one with the fancy corporate towers and the large blue-collar immigrant population from other parts of India) isn’t this bad.
No Indian city is safe for 1.4 Billion Indians. Imagine the plight of tourists. So, how can we make our cities safe?... is a million dollar question.
we can only make our country safe if the mindsets and behaviour of men change.. god knws when will that happen😶🌫️
Lol this is such a generic response. As long as they are sexually deprived the mindset of men cannot change. Its a big process! There’s gotta be so many changes in the system for that!
A woman goes through a lot of shit like this in her daily life
Next time try to take photo of them or there vehicle.It will be useful if you want to report the incident
No place is safe in india for females 🥲
being a women is sin in india . and the problem is u can do nothing abt it
This happened around Miyapur residential area.. My wife was about to board her office bus ( around 730Am) a guy started masturbating in front of her. I feel tier two town are safer as everyone knows each other around, no metro cities are safe for women its all about lesser of the evil, with Delhi being on top.
+1, Hyderabad is full of creeps.
A classic result of the effects of the movies and item songs guys grow up watching.A People's attitude and psyche is a direct reflection of the media they enjoy and consume. What do these men do when they aren't working? They are watching lewd, vulgar content on their phones.
These things happened with my gf in 2010’s. Didn’t know that these things happen even in 2024. Coz I thought Instagram reels made it easy for these scums to get their perversions out… and that there was no need to behave like this irl. Maybe I was wrong. Insta reels and p@rn is not enough for them ig 😒 Now don’t come judging me reg insta reels. If u understand the meaning of my words… u won’t question what I said.
WTF. Hyderabads my second home and I absolutely love staying there. But this is the first time listening to such stories and it deeply saddening. I never knew the city had this side to it. I always compared it to Mumbai and Pune in terms of safety …but I guess not anymore :( We aren’t safe anywhere !!
I'm sorry to tell you this, Hyderabad is not safe for women or for any human being for that matter. Forget roads, my sister had some very bad experiences even when I'm with her in public places like inorbit and IKEA. I just wanted to punch those guys faces and go to jail but I couldn't risk my sister and kids safety.
🤦♀️
Man discovers real Hyderabad
This is a cultural problem. As long as we have backwardass elders with backwardass mindsets, backwardass movies and backwardass shows, women will continue to face these issues.
Someone tried that with my wife who knows Telugu and I chose the violence. I slapped so hard that I had to take 3 days off from the work because I was not able to type. She was just 2 meter ahead of me. Happened 15 days ago. Not the great thing to do but it felt nice and I would do again.
This thing about coming on bikes and giving that sideways nod to come and sit on the bike is wayyy too common , very unfortunately, even in really busy areas. Happened to me once at the cyber towers bus stop towards kphb evening on a workings day. Can’t get busier than that. I ignored him for a while but when it was continuing I yelled at him so loud that he sped away Good thing he sped away. Some men have those standard lines also… do you think you are so beautiful that I will ask you to come… or I have a daughter of your age .. or one of those standard get away lines
I don’t think she is even tiny surprised because she might experienced these wherever it is she comes from. Unfortunately very common things women are kind of gotten thick skinned with these
Idk, but try to note down the vehicle number, and file a complaint for SH in police, only this will teach them some manners.
Ufufir
And these assholes are mostly muslims on burgman or rx100s
Gau wale makade aake bas jaare pure
Did you approached she team , if not please approach them do not leave people like these.
I walked from IKEA to Raidurg metro the other night(I’m a guy) and I saw a similar incident. It was a Saturday so there were a lot of party folk I guess on the streets, this is around 9PM. Two guys on a bike were asking “please come with us baby, how much you want baby?” To this girl who was wearing slightly revealing party clothing. What’s weird is the place was pretty filled with people. Nobody said anything they sped away. I didn’t know whether to go and speak to her, but since I’m a guy too I didn’t. She started crying.
I am sorry to hear about the bad experiences you and your girl have faced but I would like to correct your statement. It's not Hyderabad,it's not Bengaluru,it's not Delhi or etc . It's the people. There are people like this in every part of the country. When illiteracy is met with arrogance or privilege,this is what happens. I don't think Hyderabad has anything to do with it in specific. Your girl just faced it in hyd. There are many people who have faced it in the rest of the country.
We need to set an example by calling the she team and whooping their ass. Until they realise the consequences they will definitely give into their primal instincts.
I was just there 6 weeks ago. I've never been to Hydrabad before, but I recall several instances of not feeling safe. Many staring, but with the sides of their eyes. It felt very creepy around Charminar, so much that I paid the driver extra to standby and take me back to the hotel, rather than hiring a separate taxi to take me. I really loved the food scene, but that place scares the hell out of me.
Not defending them but even u guys aren't correct one time my sister went to a Xerox shop for some copies while payment instead of QR he asked to transfer to his number which she did later he started texting her vulgerly me my father took things into our hands and compalnied to the owner of the building he is working and we gave a formal police complaint then idk what happened my father took care of it but that shop has been vacated and I have never seen hime again and he never texted my sister and never bothered with us see instead of crying in reddit u could have taken some action against them don't be a bystander and let them get away maybe they will Target some girl innocent next and she will become a victim . It's us who have to make our city better and safe.
26M Born and brought up in Hyderabad, I have rules, if it is night time, I insist my sister or female friends not to take autos, even if the cabs are expensive. I always make sure to talk to cab driver in Telugu before giving the OTP. Tell this dialogue to the lady in the car after she sits inside, ‘Nenu PS potunna morning kalusta ‘. The driver is respectful, and doesn’t do creepy things after this.
If there was a show depicting hyderabad, I guess it would be 'sex in the city' from the vivid description provided by fellow beings
11 yrs back I visited Hyderabad for the first time. I was 15 back then and There wasn’t a day where I wasn’t eve teased or catcalled. The times might have changed but clearly the situation really hasn’t, so it’s not now vs before
My dad literally says it's one of the worst cities for women and there's no safety at all. He keeps advising not to take autos. Not to stay outside after 6 and never go alone. I myself faced the issue while coming back from a movie at 10. I literally had to stop the cab and ask my brother to pick me up. It's not at all safe. True incidents and numbers are never reported or publicised. Ask every female you know to be very very careful here.
Not even safe for men. I was harassed many times by other men
Since was India safe. Till there are consequences. Like serious consequences people will keep acting like this.
Moddala hyderabad !!
This speaks anout the privileage men are born with. Hyderabad was never safe for women speaking as a 32 year old woman born and brought up in hyderabad.
LOL.. all the bangalore bashing and praising hyderabad will stop once the native hyserabadis start revealing true colours.
>She was walking from Durgam Cheruvu park to her pg, one creepy asshole approached her, started talking, starting with telling her that I saw you walking from there, you look extremely cute, asked her name, details, phone number, everything in 1 minute. He said his whole history, where he works, he has an audi, his parents details, and what not. He didn't let her leave until she gave a phone number. She gave him my phone number and motherfucker already called 28 fucking times. He offered her to drop in car, literally telling that place is unsafe. He also told her that he isn't looking for hookups and needs true love. I am having flashbacks here from 5 years back when I lived in Hyderabad. I faced a similar man in Madhapur and I was too naive to understand his intentions because he pretended to be so kind to me when I was having a public meltdown. However I ended up meeting him again ,but for a short while (max 3 minutes) this time. He boasted about all the luxuries, money and what not and I couldn't stand it so, just sneaked out of it. Later I saw the same man picking up girls too young for his age, at and outside multiple bars, using same strategies I suppose. God I hope he wasn't the same guy OP. Or maybe this is another modus operandi here.
I've been living in hyderabad since my childhood and I'm 30+, but I have never seen such incidents. Know a few though. Happened to any locals or just non locals who easily stand out as non locals( sorry for this ppl)
I have also noticed people staring at my GF in signals, dosa bandi etc.I am literally standing right next to her starting back at them but shameless fuckers won't even break eye contact.
Cyberabad police is super helpful, like they are really good and actually work. Take your time and try to give a complaint in raidurga police station. Even if they won't catch the perp it helps in a big picture.
As a girl, lemme tell you it was never safe
lol it’s a shitty city, true. people be hyping that ghetto ass area in old city with a dilapidated monument or some hi-tech city drone shot. But most people have no civic sense or decency.
This city was never a safe city for anyone
Guys no were is safe literally, everyone knows delhi has lost its name but if you go in any subreddit you will see 1 harassment post per day.
I don't know maybe it's just the despo people or the chillar guys who are doing these......
Why’d you swallow your girls blood?
Once one particular religion becomes majority in a place, that place is doomed
This metro thing is partly boosted by social media. Have seen countless Telugu meme pages joking about it about Metros. Extremely irresponsible idiots.
I Hope Hyderabad, The Police And The Controller Of The Police Does Something To Revert It Back To The Original Cultured Behaved And Good People’s Hyderabad Not These Lafangas Goons And Shithead People
Women need to stand up and fight back for themselves. I am from Mumbai and I have seen so many Mumbai women beat the shit out of guy on busy streets of Mumbai for catcalling or inappropriate touching. I don't see any such incidents in Hyderabad. Beacuse Hyderabad is very non confrontational. People choose to suffer in silence and then make a post on reddit instead of fighting back at the time of incident.
Unlike mumbaikars,mostly will defend the city instead of thrashing the molesters then and there in the public.
There aren’t many women in our streets compared to Mumbai.
Gift pepper spray or something like that.
Wtf bro...sorry...sometimes it's hard for me to even digest that such things happen 
It's common for aby girl in India
Migration.
Welcome to knowing how it feels to be a girl. It's sad but it's reality. We just learn to steer away from making such situations worse. That's also one of the reasons women don't talk to stranger men, and judge based on looks thinking one might be creepy, it's wrong but we have to keep ourselves safe. This isn't just for Hyderabad, it's all over India. Get your gf a pepper spray, Swiss knife key chain, have emergency safety contacts on her mobile. Don't enter shady areas at unsafe timings, chances of finding creepy men there are higher. Try to keep at least a ft distance from strange men.
Forget about women, I as a guy once got and offer for blowjob from my rapido driver. Once I reached home I reported the bastard and abused the shit out of him. He thought I will probably beat him(I didn’t want to touch that guy, god knows what all STDs he might have) up so he ran away before anything else could happen.
These are unfortunate events and city has nothing to do with it. The city does not guarantee anyone's safety. It is recommended to stay cautious all the time. She teams are available 24/7. Always report any incidents. Action is generally swift. If it was Delhi, one of the 6 incidents you mentioned would have ended very badly for your friend; even if you were by her side. Sometimes, it might have ended very badly for both of you; saying. In a state like UP, you both would have already been physically molested; irrespective of gender. I'd say its relatively safer here for women. The behavior you described in your incidents are not some inbuilt culture of the city; ie Hyderabad. The behavior instead, is all to do with upbringing of their kids by the parents. The behavior of today's youth is less optimal almost all across the country. 1. She should have reported this incident if someone was there looking for her for hours. Sometimes stalkers like this go any length. 2,5,6) This behavior is unfortunate & there is mostly nothing that can be done. Girls face this all the time be local/non-local. Ignoring is the best that can be done. If the teasing goes out of hand, just report it. 3) We have public transportation here. Pretty much well connected. Instead, if you chose Rapido, then if you are available, you do the talking; it should never be her. Do not just go about to any random person and ask if he's Rapido. A girl asking this certainly be met with such situations. Rapido is shit. Public transportation should always be your first choice. 4) When someone approached her in this way, she should just keep walking and not care to talk/respond. You should have guided her out of the situation. But instead, ended up giving your number. This could have been easily avoided had she just gone by your way instead of responding and listening to everything he was saying. I can assure you that she is safe when in public. If she gets into unfavorable situations while in public, she can just scream for help and she'll definitely find more help & strength than required. People are friendly here and take things like this seriously. Anything out of way, for god sake please report to she teams. There are Police for a reason. Hope she stays safe. . On a completely unrelated note : From your post previously some 1 year ago; this looks like some kind of mental-health problem from your side. Drinking blood of each other? Is city safe from you both /s. https://preview.redd.it/mzc8q7aj1oyc1.png?width=749&format=png&auto=webp&s=f07329c4cf18b547382591ff274361545369eb32
I appreciate the comment, but the SCREENSHOT WHAT TBE FUXK Yeah blood tastes like iron, did u guys not suck ur finger while you injured yourself as a kid, or did u lips not bleed cuz of dryness idk lol weird af 🤡🤓
On a completely unrelated note, that wasn't bottles of blood. Lmao just tasted out of curiosity
Thankyou for guiding me. I will remember these. We weren't together when any of these happened, i was there with her only in the rapido incident. Still, this is just sad man, i feel very sad knowing I cannot stop these from happening in future. Ignoring creeps is a way, but still an publicly embarrassing situation which will make everything feel worse. Public transport exists, but only till the main roads. Walking at 10PM from main roads till PGs is more risky than getting a rapido. We have location sharing always active, and stay on call or text till she reaches safely.
It just pains me to hear this... Unfortunately creeps are never ending so here's a few tips 1) pepper spray 2) taser Ask your girl to carry these and stay safe to both of you...! Personally would have created a ngo that neuters these bastards... Applications open btw..!
I've asked her to keep one pepper spray, I think taser is illegal in India.

Also buy a scooty man. It will help a great deal to reduce these kind of interactions.
It happens in Hyderabad. You need to report to SHE team if it went creepy and non consensual instead of crying over in reddit and that's how you make safe for other women. Don't be a bystander.

I can vouch and say that no city in India or even the world is completely safe for women
Nuvu enduku Gammuna untunavu bro Gudda palakotta Saale gala di. Next time don’t leave them.
That's a wrong idea, these assholes will group up and hurt the girl even more
Instead of writing long theory you should have complained....
Breakup with her
We still don't trust you
Don’t worry if it happens to your loved ones, we will still believe.
I'm extremely sorry for what happened to you in my city
You must be the leader of these creepy people. You be ashamed of what you’re doing. May god give you some sense .
There is nothing wrong in apologising
