On Tuesday, Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar had met Dikshit at her residence and apprised her about the steps being taken by the force to improve safety of women. Earlier this month, Dikshit had slammed police after a brutal assault on a young girl in Lajpat Nagar area, saying women do not feel safe here and "fears have risen" following the incident. "Women don't feel safe in Delhi. There is no feeling of security," she had said. In a letter to Shinde last month, Delhi government had accused the city police of "completely deviating" from its core duties and "trivialising" the issue of safety of women. The government had said that instead of focusing on improving law and order in the city, the police was much more interested in issues unauthorised constructions and granting of various licenses.
