Harsimrat said the manner in which the anecdotes were recounted during the function held to mark the International Women's Day before the academic community trivialised the dignity of women and appeared to glorify hooliganism, eve-teasing and objectification of women. The Bathinda MP said this was a fit case for registration of a case of sexual harassment (Section 74), insulting the modesty of a woman (Section 79) and addressing acts intended to outrage the modesty of a woman (Section 75) of the BNS. She said such acts also ran contrary to constitutional guarantees provided under Articles 14, 15 and 21 of the constitution which ensured equality before law, prohibited discrimination on the basis of sex and safeguard the dignity and personal liberty of every citizen of the country....
