Stating ""Just tonight, I was coming back with my female friend from the movie and suddenly two cars full of 10 men tried to block our way. This incident took place at Mukhani road near Sacred Heart School, Haldwani This happened+ pic.twitter.com/4wxAClYxJh
In a horrific account, Joshi explained how the harassment began with the black Scorpio (T0724UK4618C) trying to block their vehicle by opening its doors, while the white i20 Nios (UK04AK1928) blocked them from behind. The worst happened when, during their second attempt, they had completely blocked the road by opening all their car doors. The saving factor was the timely intervention of a man on a scooter who pushed a small opening between the chasing, snarling pack through which Joshi and her friend managed to get away.
The accident has infuriated the residents, more so with the rising incidents of hooliganism and insufficient safety given to women in Haldwani. Joshi's plea is indicative of the calls for an immediate response by Uttarakhand police to ensure that such incidents are not left unaddressed.
This Haldwani Viral video and the detailed account by Joshi have sparked a discussion on the bigger issues of women's safety and how effective current security measures in the city are. The public reaction underlines the dire need for the laws to be strictly enforced in order to provide better protection for women against such despicable behavior.
