Anti sexual Harassment cell
Sexual harassment is perceived to violate an individual’s dignity. It has ruined countless innocent lives and careers. The responsibility of universities and colleges as modern educational institutions is not only to treat women students and all youth regardless of gender as citizens who have a right to safety but to assist them physically, emotionally and intellectually to claim that right and seek to expand its contours.
The following is also sexual harassment and is covered by the committee
- Unsavory remarks
