At first glance, it looks like just another woman arriving for a Navratri night in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
But look closer at her stride. Dressed in a traditional Chaniya Choli, she isn't just a reveller. She is an undercover officer of the Ahmedabad Police She Team.
Alongside her fellow officers across the grounds, she moves as part of the celebration itself, rather than standing behind barricades. Silently monitoring every corner and deterring harassment in real time, they ensure Gujarat’s daughters celebrate Garba with complete dignity and freedom.
About this initiative:
Every year during Navratri, the Ahmedabad Police formally deploys multiple She Team units in plain traditional attire across major public and commercial Garba venues. Established specifically to safeguard women, children, and senior citizens, these specialized teams operate undercover each night to provide immediate intervention, create on-ground awareness, and uphold Gujarat's global reputation as one of the safest regions for women.
