This query is : Resolved
In the light of leading judgment of the Supreme Court of India in the case of Vishaka & others vs State of Rajasthan (1997), I seek one clarification.
If the harassment commences from the women staff, what is the remedy? If the women vindictively makes a false complaint, what is the remedy to the male member, because, the supreme court recent judgments appears always goes in favour of female members only.
How to prevent such misuse of this judgment by women employees.

This is a very famous judgment which has to be followed all over India, except Jammu & Kashmir, as law of the land under article 141 of the constitution. This you can see in the reports of supreme court case laws of 1997 which is very elaborate and included in the service rules of govt. officials. At present, I am in abroad. So, I cannot furnish the same immediately. However, you can get the judgment in the web site,as supreme court judgment for sexual harassment in work places Vishaka and others vs State of Rajasthan, (1997)
