I shocked by reading your above message. How can u say that each n every gal/guy who worked or working shud not be consider as partner for marriage ? Ur really blind. There r many gals in this world who r working bcoz they have some responsibilities towards their home. It doesn't mean that they r characterless. Puri duniya agar kharab hoti to aaj yeh duniya hi na hoti. So pl. mind yur lang. before commenting on public board.
Our country is very special...we have strict rules over sex in home and outside from banning out TV channels like the F-TV and still we all have tremendous lust, attraction towards sex.
Watch any movie (regional or national) sex is the most explicit feeling shown out and no doubt such movies run Good.
Sex in our country is treated in a very different way all of us have wildest dreams of sex we do not want to talk about and consider a person talking about sex a Sex Maniac. Increase in cases of sexual harrasment is obvious result of such a behaviour by us. Not only Bangalore but all across nation rape, molestation is on the rise.
Visit any developed country and sex is such a cheap thing that no one even cares if a women walked naked on the street.
Instead of making wild guesses, the concerned authorities must do a profiling of both the culprits and victims to identify real causes - family background, educational level, dress and behaviour - it will then be relatively easy to spot potential culprits and victims for taking advance action.

if person comes from a poor family does not mean they are all bad, a poor person may not afford good education which does not mean that person is bad, sons of rich could be worse than the poor

It is also advisable for women working in such an environment to carry an mp3 type recorder, so that verbal abuse and suggestive talk can be recorded. Even the knowledge that such recorders are in use, may deter the culprits.

You think we live in the US/Europe...that people would use hidden camera, MP3 recorders...sorry to say a laughable suggestion at best. How much would you fight considering the poor system?

Read the article again. Majority are from BPO and multinational banks. Some may be able to buy a recorder. The organisations have a social responsibility to identify and stop such activities. They may provide for vulnerable employees. In any case, to punish the culprits, some evidence will be necessary. A recorder may provide the necessary evidence.
Call centres I dont understand whether it is a good to Indian or Bad to India. Since call centres have come up girls have become more and more independent. There are many cases in Bombay where indecent activities taking place between call centres employees as they have to work in night and parents dont have control over them as they get good payments. I am not saying all the employees are bad but most call centre employees are indulged in activities which are against Indian culture

....it is very easy to generalise things by just a few examples. these things have been happenning in every industry. i agree that over the past few years these activities have increased but that is more due to influence of western culture than call centers. call centers on NOT, we would always be faced with such situations
Liberalisation & Globalisation would have their effects. So when you have a cosmopolitan free going culture, it side effects are this. Why our girls day-by-day need less quantity of cloth. How far they are modest and feminine ? if some of the girls want to do a Mallika (who needs 1/2 meter to cover herself) they have to face this definately not only at work, public areas and everywhere.
Constitution Rights, Womens Rights are nice in books and courts and we cant live with them. As one is punished the other is ready the very second.
Its some time necessacity for some and for some its greed of parents which has no bounds. I have seen parents spending lakhs and lakhs and sending their tender 17/18 years daughters to even unknown lands even like China for studies. What is the need for them to do this ?? Its squarely parents are to blamed for this and its their responsibility to keep their children under control let it be boys or girls. Let it be in studies, dress or what so ever handling delicately their wards.

What have you gained by studying in India, if this is your notion of Indian women and Indian culture? And I am sure you are one of those guys who wait to see Mallika Sherawat onscreen to see how far she's gone with her clothes? So why blame just her? You are equally to blame! Why do only girls need to be modest? What is your definition of modesty? Before blaming it on 'greed of parents', see what you have done with YOUR upbringing and YOUR education. Maybe YOUR parents should have kept you in control from making silly and biased comments against girls. Maybe YOUR parents are to blame for your stupid, one-track mentality. And last but not the least, go check the numbers..... sexual harrassment is not a by-product of a girl's dress or a girl's behaviour. Most of these take place in very conservative states where girls are not allowed to talk to boys and don't wear any 'revealing' outfits, so to say.

Wow! what a solution....bravo! lets impose Mr. Chetan Mangal's Dictatorial Governance. I honestly wish this country dint have weirdos like yourself....who are regionalistic and sadistic most of the team. get a life punk...

Tarun, Chetan's weird solution is partly right and partly wrong... Right becuase in a country like ours, rules and logic have no place...consider simple moves by government be it the latest boiling issue over QUOTA or be it the N-Deal, instead of addressing the problem head we tend to fix the problem back door way, which may look like working but it is actaully only shifting the problem. And wrong becuase obviously this is illogical and uncivilized. But if you consider the way decisions are made in this country...Chetan is absolutely Right!...Think over

Dude, it is not the girls who were less clothes who are sexually abused. It is the usually the other way round. Indian males abuse girls because they know they can get away with it in our society as it is usually the girls who are blamed by people like you for the abuse in a roundabout way. Normal girls/ladies dont dress like Mallika in everyday life.

If we are trying to cure this widespread tumor in our society simply by making hue and cry about female dressing and independence it is a mere escapism. The commissioner's advice is welcome. But why he is biased? should we blame the victim or punish the culprit?? Why cant v enforce stringent laws? Legal formalities should be made transparent and the punishment itself must be a moral for the society.

Mr. Gopal Krishna, I have heard of Bangalore and Karnakata, but what is "kannads" ?
The Commissioner of Bangalore had instructed female working sector not to wear exposing dresses, and not to mingle with guys, and also not to try to adopt american culture, Indian culture is always the best. But these females try to act over smart by exposing themselves and act as if they born to george bush. and this is the result that some 3rd grade guys and guys belonging to low class families try to take advantage. Always adopt indian culture, everything will be in a decent manner and safe.

I think you are the one who should be in his 'limits'. No one dresses like 'American Beaches' (Sic!) in India. And that is not the reason for molestations. Read up the figures and then come in with your smart comments!

HE IS RIGHT. I HAVE LIVED IN BANGALORE FOR MORETHAN TWO DECADE AND HAVE SEEN SEA CHANGES IN THE LIVING STYLES. PARTICULARLY AFTER THE ADVENT OF BPO CULTURE, THE EMPLOYEES FEELS THAT, IT IS BECAUSE OF THEM BANGALORE HAS EARNED A NAME IN THE GLOBAL MARKET. THEY JUST APE THE WESTERN CULTURE BY WEARING SKIMMY DRESS AND GO TO PUB AND MOVE FREELY WITH THE OPPOSITE SEX. THEY HAVE FORGOTTEN THEIR TRUE CULTURE AND LIVING AND ONCE BITTEN THERE IS NO POINT IN REGRET. YOU HAVE CHOSEN THE PATH AND TRAVEL TILL YOU REACH THE DESTINATION - REALISATION.MOST OF THE REPORTED CASES OF TEASING AND SEXUAL HARRASSMENT ARE EITHER FROM MINORITY COMMUNITY OR FROM SC/ST BACKGROUND.
