With the daily increase in the number of rape cases in Delhi, Saina Nehwal has expressed her concern towards the issue and has said that she is scared to walk alone in the national capital’s streets.

According to NDTV Sports, Saina said: “Last time, I came to Delhi there was a rape incident and again there is rape. I am very sad and upset with what is happening in Delhi. Something must be done immediately to stop this.”

She added: “After what I am hearing (of the rapes), it is really very scaring. I will think twice (about walking alone in Delhi). This can happen to me as well. It is very unfortunate. Delhi is a beautiful city but such incidents have truly tarnished its image.”

The 23-year-old badminton star, who won a bronze in the London Olympics, is scheduled to play the India Open Grand Prix badminton championships in Delhi later this week.

There are 220 players from 18 countries who will be taking part in the event in Delhi from April 23 to 28. In the women’s singles section, Saina and PV Sindhu will be India’s hopes of winning medals.
