Many people have been wondering, among them some of my friends, whether this outing of sexual harassers is going too far? Tackling the menace of sexual harassment, at work and elsewhere, in India will be tough simply because Indian society is more accepting of various forms of harassment. Harassment in public spaces often leads to women dropping out of the workforce, something India can ill-afford. There might well be a backlash but that does not mean that women and men should abandon or dilute the cause. It will be a long hard battle against all forms of sexual harassment but it has now been proved that no harasser is quite safe anymore, anywhere.
