Hema Committee-ക്ക് ശേഷം: Kerala Workplace-കളിൽ എന്ത് മാറി? | POSH Act | 42 Podcatcher
42 PodCatcher
"I don't hit my wife." Is that the standard we've settled for?
In this episode of 42 Podcatcher, Advocate Bindu Sankarapillai talks about the massive gap between the laws we have and the justice women actually receive. From the POSH Act to the Hema Committee fallout, we go beyond the "Goddess" worship and look at the brutal reality of workplace and domestic harassment in Kerala.
In this episode:
- The Price of Success: Why professional achievement makes a woman a target for "back-talk".
- The Family Betrayal: Why "loving" families are the first to tell victims to "stay home".
- Burden of Proof: Why the victim has to fight for years to prove a "brutal rape" while the system protects the accused.
- Hema Committee Truths: How false complaints are killing the chance for genuine survivors to come forward.
- Modern Taboos: The shifting ethics of workplace affairs and "Red Flags" you shouldn't ignore.
- "The problem isn't a lack of laws; it's where they are being used."
