Abstract:
During 2020-21, the rate of crime against women has considerably increased, especially the cases of domestic violence,
kidnapping, and rape. Considering the fact that a woman better understands the problem of another woman, and to ensure women’s
safety in this era of technology, we proposed opening Police Headquarters with lady staff only. For this, we suggest the use of the
latitude, longitude, and average weighted crime as clustering parameters for the K-means method to recognize the most probable
location at which such headquarters can be opened. The parameter average weighted crime signifies the magnitude or intensity
of nine different possible crimes against women and thus identifies the location where the maximum number of crimes against
women are reported. Therefore, such locations are ideal for setting up the Lady Police Headquarters to further curtail any such
crimes, and deliver swift protection as well as justice to the victim women. It is somehow similar to identifying clusters (locality)
from clusters (blocks). Thence, using the suggested approach, the Indian law enforcing agencies including police can prevent and
control crimes at the micro level and can also increase their reach
