Should women cover up for their own safety?

There are reports of a 'mass molestation' in Bangalore on New Year's Eve - an Indian Minister responded by saying on TV criticising women for "dressing like westerners" - he now claims he was misquoted. The police say they are looking at CCTV pictures from New Year's Eve and say they haven't had any official complaints from the public. But does the Indian Minister have a point? Are Asian women 'too westernised' with how we dress? Are you mindful of what you wear when you leave the house because you fear men will leer at you? Three callers share their views with Shazia
