I look forward to you valuable inputs, thanks again. thank you very much for the valuable feedback Dr Sushma, i agree with you that the victim who keeps quiet shares an equal blame, thus a need for an outlet where victims feel safe enough to come out in the open.

One of the most concrete preventive measures start at home itself, educating the girl/boy of what sexual harrassment is/ how to prevent/and what to do when it happens. Don’t mess with me attitude always works…when the perpetrator has the fear of being exposed surprisingly they usually prefer to keep off from such person. I completely agree with you Priyanka it is the employer’s legal and above all MORAL responsibility to ensure not only physical but emotional security as well. And all those who do not have the support need to support themselves to come out and speak, if harassing is illegal than getting victimised is equally criminal, if you will not fight for yourself than no one will. Remember, you have no right to put yourself in distress for someone elses abnormal, psychological pleasure. There are many avenues to get out of it only if you chose to find one.
