20 Years Later: Women's Harassment on Streets Remains Unaddressed
For many women in India, the streets remain a site of fear and harassment, with memories lingering long after the incidents. An opinion piece highlights that if the solution to unsafe streets is to ask women to avoid them, then we have fundamentally failed to address the real problem of safety.
Women should not be forced to change their behavior to feel secure in public spaces; instead, it is the responsibility of society and the government to ensure their safety. The piece provocatively questions whether we are doing enough to tackle harassment and create a safer environment for all citizens.
As reported by NDTV, the ongoing issue of women's safety in public spaces demands urgent attention and accountability from authorities. When will we see meaningful action taken to protect the rights and dignity of women in India?
