I went to India all by myself. I stayed for 25 days. I visited several cities such as Bombay, Bangalore, New Delhi, and Agra Raj Mahal. During my stay, I was accommodated in hotels and hostels. And I always felt safe.

It's not as dangerous as Delhi or big cities of India. People are mostly nice. In the region of Dayalbagh it's still safer than other parts of Agra. Life is not hectic, people won't cheat on you. The food is cheap too.

Agra is part of Uttar Pradesh and it is famous for pick pocketing and looting strangers. Be careful and don’t go to isolated places. On a seperate note, Taj Mahal is the most beautiful when you visit it on a full moon night.
