Hi All,
In her latest 'advertisement' the Delhi CM has quoted a Delhi State Govt order of 1954 to declare that companies must take permission of the State Govt if their women employees are required to work beyond 8 pm in the night.
Do you feel it is the right approach?
Shouldn't she rather take steps to improve the security situation instead?
Is such indirect imposition of curfew in the interest of the women HR of Delhi?
Please contribute to this discussion and lets make it a forum for waking up the Government.
Cheers

dear Mr. Narang,
i will also go with your views.
actually its not a solution that she is giving to us.
actually she should work on the fact that city should be that safe that anythime a women can rome in the city.
its not that any mishappening can be there after 8:00 PM in the night. it can happen anytime.
somethime the misshappening takes place in the day time also.
so in my opinion city should be safe anythime and anywhere.

Rightly said Naveen, In today's era where men and women are giving equal rights, it will be unfair to give only Women special privilege of not working beyond eight rather the safety of the city is to be focussed upon.

Hi,
Seems all have reservations to this "getting permission". I fully stand by the recent regulation. She has not told to fully STOP employing women after 8.00 pm. but to obtain due permission from the relevant authorities to do so.
What is the point in objecting to this???
I also agree that the city should be safer all 24/7. But in case of mishappenings who is blamed ? the organisation. the police and the government as a whole for not having initiated any PREVENTIVE MEASURES.
Also note there have been incidents evident from the newspapers, the crime rates againt women working during nights are on the increase across the country. Some measures of this sort would help both to prevent such crimes and also to hold someone accountable / responsible in case of mishaps.

Well, I see your point, Rajan, but tell me, it it morally correct to take a leaf out of a 1954 order to justify the ban? Why did not anybody wake up when the BPOs started functioning? It is like allowing a discotheque to open and then put a ban preventing anyone from visiting after 10 pm.
Is government creating guaranteed job opportunities for women? Is govt controlling inflation to an extent that women do not have to work? The fact is that criminalisation of politics and corruption of values has taken such a toll, that even people like Shiela Dixit are helpless; all they can do is rush for some outdated policy/order and use it as a shield!
