The study found that most cases of violence or crime against women are due to a lack of lighting in and on the route to access sanitation and water facilities, lack of access to the toilet block, as well as the dangerous location of PTs (Public Toilets) and CTCs (Common toilet complexes). This paper is an attempt to solve problems related to women's safety while accessing or using basic water sanitation facilities.
