This document analyzes the economic and moral perspectives of women's safety in India. It discusses how violence against women results in significant economic losses, citing studies that estimate losses of 1.2-15.6 billion dollars to economies. Several shocking facts about violence faced by women in India are presented, such as 1 in 3 women experiencing violence. The document outlines objectives to understand the relationship between crime rates, women's safety, and GDP. Hypotheses are tested finding a significant rise in violence from 2010-2015 and a negative correlation between crime and GDP. A survey found most agree women's safety should be a priority in developing smart cities and stronger laws are needed. Recommendations include sex education, defense training, and legal reforms

4. *DATA SPELLS OUT THE
SHOCKINGFACTS
*1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual
violence once in their lifetime.
*700 million today are girls who were married
before the age of 18 years.
*2.24 million crimes were reported during the
last decade.
*26 crimes are reported every hour.

5. *D0 YOU REALLY KNOW ?
*The National Council of Australia 2009 estimated 13.6$ billion loss
to the economy due to violence against women and their children.
This cost would further rise to 15.6$ billion by 2021 if no
appropriate action is initiated against violence
*The macroeconomic earning gaps between women experiencing
violence and those not of 1.711% of GDP of its country, Vietnam.
*For instance to quantify only a single aspect ie compensation to
rape victims at a minimum amount of Rs 50,000 for registered
cases in an financial year would amount to Rs 199,02,50,000 ie
One ninety nine crores two lakh fifty thousand ( 39805 * 50000
ie NO of rape victims in 2015 * Minimum amount of
compensation).

6. *NEED FOR WOMEN SAFETY
*Where are we heading ?
*Are we really Planning Smart Cities .
The Socio Economic Impact of Violence

morality only why aren’t we focusing on
ECONOMIC PART ?

19. CONCLUSION
 The Macro Economic Impact of Violence against women is well established
by the study. This calls to perceive VAW not just ethically wrong but also
has severe economic loss.
 There is significant increase in the VAW in our country specially cruelty by
husbands.
 There is negative correlation between Crime Index (VAW ) and GDP of
country.
 The voices of the respondents clearly look forward to include women safety
as an important component while developing smart cities.
 54% of the respondents agree that government has failed to take adequate
measures to ensure women safety.

20. RECOMMENDATIONS
 Sex education and defense training as an
integral part of education at school and
university level.
 Revision in existing law process by including
the say of victim while deciding punishment of
accuser
 Law for rape by husband should also be
introduced.
