There are, however, some areas you could keep away from on your India Travel such as the North-Eastern states or even Jammu and Kashmir. Though the situation is slowly normalizing between India and Pakistan, it is always advisable to be aware of what is happening in the places you plan to visit.
As for the usual cases of theft and mugging, well, they take place in almost every country and there is nothing much that you can do against those except be careful of where you go and when on your India Travel journey.
Ladies, a word of advice. Avoid wearing revealing clothes and you won't attract unwanted male attention.
We provide you some guidelines to follow while on your India Travel journey. While they may not be absolutely fool-proof, they go a long way to keeping you safe and sound.
- Do not display your money to outsiders. Take care to keep your money, passport, insurance, travelers' cheques, etc. in a safe deposit box in your hotel or better still under your shirt and close to your body. Do not use a waist pouch.
- Keep photocopies of your passport, insurance, travelers' cheques, etc. handy.
- Avoid keeping all your money in one place
- Avoid dark and lonely places
- Women should try not to travel alone.
- If you lose your passport, head for the nearest police station and report your loss with a First Information Report. Also contact your embassy immediately.
