Don't go alone to the park, to school, to work.'
Twinkle further wrote these things on women's safety
- 'Do not go out alone with any man, even if he is your uncle, cousin, or friend. Do not go out alone in the morning or evening, especially not at night. Do not go alone because it is not a matter of if, but when. Do not go alone because you may never come back. It is time to ensure that laws are implemented and followed so that safety measures can be guaranteed for women in public places instead of keeping us tied to the house.'
