Pune's Safety Perception Shifts Amid Rising Concerns

Pune, once known as a safe city, is now facing concerns about safety.

Residents and experts talk about how crime has changed over time.

In the past, there were many criminal gangs, but now these gangs have become politicians.

This has led to new types of crimes like cyber fraud and drug trafficking.

People in Pune feel that the city is still safer than many others, but there are problems like traffic violations, harassment, and slow police responses.

Students and young migrants, especially those from minority communities, feel that safety is not equal for everyone.

The city is at a point where it needs to address these issues before they become bigger problems.
