This article by Mary E. John, 2019, traces the uprisings of young people, especially women against Sexual Violence since 2012. It illustrates the relationship between gender inequalities and sexual violence existing in patriarchal institutes of the society which push women further towards the margins and promote gender injustice.
In 1997, India celebrated a landmark judgment by the Supreme Court, which mandated the Vishaka Guidelines, ensuring redress and prohibition measures on sexual harassment of women at the workplace. This guideline laid the foundation for the Sexual Harassment of Women at the Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013.
