Girls remember a few things :

Always carry edgy keychains with pointed ends, pocket knife and if possible pepper sprays along.

The eyes, nose, cheek bone , chin and groin area are most vulnerable and can cause immediate pain when attacked.
In event of any untoward incident , attack the criminal without a second thought

It is not easy for everybody to attend a self defence class because most of them are either students/working .
In order to develop reflex, just keep a dummy target in your room and just practice half an hour for two weeks.
This might sound silly but it would be of help

An immediate often causes nervousness where the victim fails to react.
The throat gets choked and victim fail to raise a cry .
While practising the simple self defence technique at your home/room, donproduce a loud ,shrill shout/voice from the throat, it would help you to focus

Don’t bother that what others in your family or surrounding will think about it.
Either get enrolled to a self defence training or practise at home , need not bother what other have to say about it.
YOUR SAFETY COMES FIRST.

And
Do avoid venturing into isolated places.
If you get stuck at some place , immediate dial a number of friends and family and let them know about your location.
In case of any suspicion immediately dial the Women police cell / police helpline

BE SAFE !
