What's in a name? Shakespeare said. But there could well be something in it after all.。

India's most populous state, Uttar Pradesh, has set up "anti-Romeo squads," which they say will ensure women's safety on streets. 。

"I thought he was quite a charming guy. UP cops need a new villain," tweeted one user. 。

The squads consist of cops stationed outside schools and colleges and they pick up young boys if they suspect them as "Romeos" — men who are sexually harassing women (known as eve-teasing in India).。
