The answer to this question is bit tricky. What, i want to say is that this area of Paharganj is a very old establishment. Lanes are narrow, shabby area all around. In addition to this petty crimes like snatching is bit common phenomena here. So, if you follow guidelines than Paharganj is a safe area even though for single women tourist also.
Do not practice this:
- Avoid touts.
- Avoid crowds.
- Avoid deserted lanes.
- Cheap hotels are no no.
- Avoid unnecessary discussions with locals.

- Check locks of the hotel room.
- Remain always alert on the road.
