The Women’s Cell is set up to investigate and recommend action on all acts of harassment against any female faculty, staff or student, because to work without harassment is every individual’s fundamental right. It is committed to making the campus-environment safe for women – free from exploitation, harassment, and violence of any nature. This institute therefore believes in and practices a “ZERO TOLERANCE” and “GENDER EQUALITY” policy.

Gender equality is achieved when women and men enjoy the same rights and opportunities across all sectors of society, including economic participation and decision making, and when the different behaviors, aspirations and needs of women and men are equally valued and favored.

The institute has an active Women’s Cell in compliance with directives of the Supreme Court of India under Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition, and Redressal) Act, 2013.

The Cell functions as a committee that investigates and recommends action on all acts of harassment against any individual of any gender. Its objectives are to:

• Uphold the dignity of women.

• Facilitate a gender sensitive and congenial working environment free of gender specific discrimination or sexualharassment.

• To ensure that victims and witnesses are not victimized or discriminated against because of lodging suchcomplaints.

• Take proactive measures to educate the institute about gendersensitivity.
