NCW Chief Calls for Stronger Implementation and Awareness of POSH Act in Private Sector
National Commission for Women Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar highlighted the need for effective implementation and greater awareness of the POSH Act, especially in the private sector. She stressed that organisations must establish and properly operate Internal Committees to provide a safe environment for women to report sexual harassment. While government bodies have largely complied, many private organisations lack awareness of their responsibilities under the law. The commission has conducted extensive outreach and consultations to promote the Act's provisions nationwide.
