Answer 1

Answer:

C. Goa

The Goa government launched the "Pink Force" to improve safety for women and children in December 2021. Chief minister Pramod Sawant launched Goa police’s pink force “to prevent crimes against women and children”. The total strength of the force is 250 personnel, and it will function round the clock, all year. The pink force, which will concentrate its operations along coastal areas, will initially operate at 11 police stations, and then cover all others. It will be helped by local police stations, and if someone is to be arrested, the force will hand over the person to the local police.
