The State Government had implemented the scheme in 2013 under Odisha State Youth Policy. Training for girl students of Plus II and Plus III colleges was essential in view of the rise in crimes against women. But the programme was left mid-way in many districts as there were not enough master trainers.

With the Delhi gang rape case in mind, the state government will give self-defence training to around three lakh girls in schools and colleges from August 1, 2013.The course curriculum for the trainers has been designed by city-based Utkal Karate School, a martial arts training school.

After imparting lessons to female students of Higher secondary schools and Higher education institutions in self-defence techniques, the state government has decided to open self-defence clubs for them in all degree colleges.

 

In the first phase, such clubs will be established in 200 colleges. In subsequent phases, more colleges will be covered. Officials in the Department of Higher Education said the clubs will be introduced to replace previously-run self-defence training programme for girls. A sum of `50,000 will be released in favour of each of the selected 200 colleges which include 43 government institutions.
