Kiran Bedi after incognito night ride: Puducherry's women safe at night

Bedi usually cycles to neighbouring areas of the Union Territory during weekends to meet people

Riding pillion on a two-wheeler with her 'dupatta' (shawl) covering her face, Puducherry Lt Governor Kiran Bedi travelled incognito to assess safety of women in the Union Territory after dusk.

In a WhatsApp message to media persons after a "night round" of the city on Friday, Bedi said, "Felt that Puducherry is safe for women even at night".

She, however, said that she would suggest a few measures "which need to be taken by the police to enhance security".
