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.

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.
