Safety a must

There’s been a commercialisation of women. Right from films to advertisements to TV reality shows and SMSes that offer “girls” women have been reduced to a mere “product”. If this commercialisation of female bodies is encouraged in the name of “liberalism” or “modernity” and the concerned authorities allow the vitiated minds to escape scot-free or get away with a light punishment, the menace of stalking and related violence will threaten the dignity and safety of women.
