Incidents of terrifying harassment of young women in Punjab, India, are on the rise, with perpetrators acting with impunity.
Recently, three young men attempted to kidnap a woman in broad daylight in a crowded area. Unfortunately, the police have not been successful in curbing these incidents or identifying and charging the perpetrators.
This epidemic of harassment has spread fear among the female population in the region, and many victims choose not to report crimes fearing social stigma and further backlash.
Authorities have attempted to respond to this issue by initiating strict actions against those involved in eve-teasing, but the problem persists.
Will the Punjab government take serious action to protect young women and deter potential harassers? Only time will tell.
