Time passes very quickly and change over time is important . Along with those changes, we should also bring changes in ourselves regularly . A lot things are changed over time, people have changed, their way of life has changed, the relationship has changed, the way of seeing life has changed but the thing that has not changed till date is – Profanity and the kind of exploitation that happens to women .
Yes, it is true that there has been a lot of difference between earlier times and now. IN the past, girls were not given such importance , they felt that it was okay for the girls to not go out, the girls did not have the right to take their decision, they were not give too much freedom to the girls, for them girls have to do house chores . But now people have changed their thinking, girls have also got the power of independence and decision making but still parents not want to send girls out. The most important reason for this is the present-day environment, yes in earlier time the thinking of people is very backward and poor for girls specially but with the development of thinking the atmosphere is become worse . The fear of today’s parents is nowadays the cases of girls has gone so much and the girl is not safe anywhere, wherever she goes people see her with dirty eyes . Now see how the girls are harassed in the office, the girls are teased, Boss do not talk well with their female employees, see them in a dirty . In the name of overtime in the office, the bosses stop their female employee and then sexually harass them and then she decide to leave that place . There are many women who have to work due to the conditions of their home and they get a job in some place where the environment is very bad for the girls, but due to the helplessness of work and money, she can not leave that place nor do anything . At work a woman is mentally sexually tortured .
Yes , for the protection of women in the workplace there were many laws was formed they were like :-
1- The Prohibition of Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013
2- Women and The Labour Laws
But in some way these laws were useless . As many of the women are unaware about this somehow a woman rise her voice against this she is mentally torture by the higher authorities because of her family advises her to take her complaint back leave that place .
A woman is not say at any of the place weather it be her home , working place or in the society . Yes , the country is changed , the people has changed and the mentality of people is also change and become worse.
