KARACHI:
Harassment is one of the major issues facing the women of every age group in our society today. Any act of physical, nonphysical or verbal abuse or inflicting humiliation is supposed to be the case of harassment. Most of the girls in our society are not comfortable enough to face the disturbing and irritating environment, and avoid coming out of their homes. Harassment cases have also been experienced online. Women are intimidated through abusive messaging or bullied to cause emotional distress. Harassment leads the victim to stress, anxiety, fear as well as physical and mental health problems. We, as a society, must rise against harassment in all its forms and manifestations.
