LEGISLATION ON SEXUAL HARASSMENT


LOK SABHA

No proposal has yet been received by the Government in respect of the manual by women for women from the Human Rights Network or its partner organization, Adhikar. However, according to information received from the National Commission for women, a draft Bill entitled "Sexual Harassment at Work Place" has been placed on the Commission’s website, eliciting opinions/suggestions on the Bill.

This information was given by the Union Minister of Law and Justice, Shri K. Jana Krishnamurthi in a written reply to a question from Shri Dalpat Singh Parste in the Lok Sabha today.
