India’s Ministry of Home Affairs has founded the "Safe City project," which aims to create a safe, secure and empowering environment for women and girls in public places to enable them to pursue all opportunities without the threat of gender-based violence or harassment. The Bengaluru Safe City project, financed by the ministry's Nirbhaya Fund, will be serviced by Honeywell and help mitigate gender-based violence in the city of over eight million people.

The city will install an integrated Command & Control Center to manage a video system that features more than 7,000 video cameras deployed at over 3,000 locations across the city. The video system will provide advanced video analytics, including facial recognition, a “Dial 100” application and drones. The city police department's existing Suraksha app to help improve incident response rate and citizen engagement will also be upgraded.
