Guwahati: In horrifying visuals that went viral on social media platforms two people allegedly died while nine policemen sustained injuries in violence that erupted during an eviction drive in Sipajhar circle in Assam’s Darrang district.

The police, according to reports maintained that there were no casualties during the incident.

The “anti-encroachment” drive was led by a team from the district administration accompanied by several policemen in riot gear and carrying weapons.

One video purportedly of the violence, showed a man running behind a photographer with his camera to attack him. However, chilling scenes emerge after the police beat the man with batons while the photographer jumps on his body as he lay on the ground after the charge of the police.

While sections of Twitter initially speculated that the man with a camera was a journalist, he has been identified as a photographer with the Darrang district administration who accompanied the eviction team.

In another video, police were seen open firing on an unarmed man protesting against the drive.

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma spoke to journalists in Guwahati following the violence. He said, “Police are doing their duty. As per my information, people attacked the police with machetes, spears, and other things. Eviction has restarted [after violence] and will continue tomorrow as well.”

A similar “anti-encroachment” drive had taken place on Monday in Dholpur’s Garukhuti, where nearly 800 families were evicted to clear government land for an agricultural project. Those being evicted are predominantly Bengali-speaking Muslims, Hindustan Times reported.

Sexual harassment is when one person subjects another person to an unwelcome act like grabbing , touching , pinching etc. The act covers students in schools and colleges as well as patients in hospitals right from the time of her birth or even before a girl could become victim of a crime or target of a crime . 

Foeticide and infanticide 

Where there is an economic or cultural preference for sons, the pregnancy diagnostic tools can lead to foeticide. 

School going age 

Many girls are not given the access opportunity and completion of proper primary and secondary education as compared to boys and otherwise may also suffer from discrimination at the hands of parents and teachers in their up bringing.

Often women suffer from exploitation unequal pay for equal work , lack of promotions disputite , physical , economic and emotional abuse.

Sexual harassment comes in many forms and not just a single one . It includes when someone tries to touch, grab or make other physical consents with you without your consent. Further , it also include passing comments which have a sexual meaning . No one in this world deserve to go through sexual harassment whether man or woman . We all have the right to live freely without being harassed. 

We found that workers across industries experience many forms of harassment some experience sexual harassment that would rise to the legal standard of either quid pro quo harassment ,or harassment that is so server and pervasive that is constitutes a hostile work environment that negatively impacts ones work . Many also commonly experience gender harassment which is generally not about sexual attraction or sexuality at all and may not rise to the standard required to file a legal complaint nevertheless , gender harassment can powerfully shape individual experience , workplace cultures and block women’s and other targets access to opportunity and advancement , perpetuating traditionally masculine power structures gender harassing physical , verbal , and symbolic behaviours insult and degrade a target’s gender in an effort to assert power control behaviour or force those who don’t conform out of a particular job or out of the profession entirely. 

There are many factors of harassment which varies from situation to situation . The most significant factor is our culture values and the relative power and status of the men and women in our society . The way women and men are brought up in our society influences their behaviour . women usually lack the confidence because since childhood their behaviour is customised to suffer silence and make compromise on the other hand men are brought up exactly Opposite to women. Such view creates an atmosphere that allows men the freedom of sexual harassment in the work place .in recent years social and political changes have brought the power game. Advancement of women in career their independence at work threatened the men .so in the tough times men try to insist on sexual favours in exchanging for benefits he can give out due to his position . 

Harassment is a world wide growing problem in every sector whether it’s government sector private sector , school or institute harassment hinders with people’s educational path and career and productivity . the effecients of harassment can be physical emotional and physiological . Harassment at work place is depending it’s roots which cause adverse effects to the growth of economy which leads to lower moral and low productivity increase in absenteeism and employee turnover that cost a lot to any organisation
