ORDER SET ASIDE BY DELHI HC FOR IMPOSING ACTION AGAINST THE WOMAN OFFICER

18^TH DECEMBER

The Delhi High Court has said sexual harassment is a serious issue that needs to be addressed at all workplaces urgently and sensitively. At the same time, stating women are valuable human resources and their contribution in all spheres of life can never be belittled, whether at the home and hearth or away from it, in more impersonal office spaces.

The Delhi High Court further noted in its order that women are entitled to a congenial and dignified environment to live their life fully and attain their full potentiality. It need not be in the form of a tutorial but certainly as subtle data to the minds of young children about their privileges or lack of it. The privileges also come in the opportunities to develop personality, confidence, intelligence, and skills. It is impossible not to notice all around us how easily a common person puts down the common woman.
