Gurugram resident Sonali Kathuria, working with an airlines company, has found the panacea to end the only problem she was facing. "I decided to shift closer to my workplace to avoid the long commute everyday. And then there is the safety factor which can be compromised."

She explains how the decision to leave the comfort of her home to a new place was difficult. "Despite the problems, I'm happy because I get a lot of time for myself."
