In fact, a seven-day self-defense training program has been launched at Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh in collaboration with the Puritan Cell of Delhi Police North West. Through this program, necessary training is being given to the medical women staff for self-defense. The initiative is being taken in view of the recent unfortunate incident at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.
Through this programme, more than 600 women medical personnel are being trained in various techniques required for self-defense. These include skills such as punches, elbow strikes, blocking, eye attacks, freeing yourself from hair and hand holds. Besides, during the training, they will also be taught to effectively use the improvised weapons they use every day, so that they can protect themselves in any dangerous situation.
