In Madhya Pradesh, in a first of its kind of initiative, `pink alarms' have been installed at the government-run district hospital and medical college in Datia, a step towards ensuring women’s safety.

• This initiative, spearheaded under the guidance of Collector Shri Sandeep Kumar Makin, is the first of its kind in any district hospital across the state.
• The Pink Alarms have been strategically placed at seven locations across three buildings within the hospital premises. 
• The purpose of this innovative system is to provide immediate assistance to any woman who feels threatened or unsafe while on duty.
• Upon activation, the alarm triggers a siren on the roof of the building, alerting security personnel.
• Additionally, the system is designed to notify guards and police officers stationed within the hospital, who are expected to reach the alarm’s location within five minutes.
