Coaches on Mumbai locals to be painted saffron: Official
To ensure the safety of women on Mumbai's local trains, the exteriors of ladies coaches should be painted in "soothing saffron", a Central Railway official has suggested. Saffron that signifies courage and sacrifice, will inspire women passengers to act against male encroachers, and male commuters will refrain from entering ladies coaches as sacrifice and chivalry on their part, he added.
