Press Trust of India

New Delhi: Amid concern over frequent incidents of crime against women in the capital, Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said on Sunday that migration and "criss-crossing" of people through the city are the biggest hurdles in keeping a check on criminals. She said it was true that the environment is such that women in Delhi do not feel safe.

Dikshit's comments came days after a 20-year-old Manipuri girl was raped by an unidentified men in south-west Delhi.

"Delhi's biggest problem which has created such a situation is because of the migration and the criss-crossing that happens through the city," she said adding that people enter the city to travel to Punjab and UP.
