Women's Cell

Social, political and economic equality for women is integral to the achievement of all development goals. Hence, gender justice means ending the inequalities between women and men that are produced and reproduced in the family, the community, the market and the state. Every woman and girl is entitled to live in dignity and in freedom, without any fear. Gender Justice is indispensable for development, poverty reduction, and is crucial to achieving human progress.

Women’s Development Cell, through its Gender Sensitisation programmes, works towards Gender Justice, Equal Opportunity and Women Empowerment which are essential for creating sustainable development as enshrined in our Constitution. Gender awareness requires not only intellectual effort but also sensitivity and open-mindedness. Gender sensitization education aims to bring modification of behaviour by raising awareness of gender equality concerns and benefits members of both sexes by helping them to determine which assumptions in matters of gender are valid and which are stereotyped generalizations.

Welcome to the Women Cell of the college where young women are groomed to face all the challenges of life with their head held high. Women Cell of the college views itself as a facilitator for young women so that they are able to realise their full potential and exercise their active influence on society to bring about its transformation.

Cell against Sexual Harrassment : CASH विशाखा समिती

With regard to the Supreme Court Judgment and guidelines issued in 1997 to provide for the effective enforcement of the basic human right of gender equality and guarantee against sexual harassment and abuse, more particularly against sexual harassment at work places, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has issued circulars since 1998, to all the universities, advising them to establish a permanent cell and a committee and to develop guidelines to combat sexual harassment, violence against women and ragging at the universities and colleges.

It has further advised the universities to be proactive by developing a conducive atmosphere on the campus, where the status of woman is respected and they are treated with. Keeping the above guidelines in view our College has constituted a Committee Against Sexual Harassment.

Committee: CASH

In keeping with the Supreme Court guidelines the college established a Cell Against Harassment and Atrocities Against Women at the workplace.

What is Sexual Harassment?

According to the Supreme Court guideline Sexual harassment can be defined as "unwelcome" sexually determined behaviour (whether directly or by implication) as:

Physical contact and advances
Demand or request for sexual favours
Sexually coloured remarks
Display of pornography
Any other unwelcome physical, verbal and non-verbal conduct of a sexual nature.

The following is also sexual harassment and is covered by the committee:

Eve-teasing,
Unsavoury remarks,
Jokes causing or likely to cause awkwardness or embarrassment,
Innuendos and taunts,
Gender based insults or sexist remarks,
Unwelcome sexual overtone in any manner such as over telephone (obnoxious telephone calls) and the like,
Touching or brushing against any part of the body and the like,
Displaying pornographic or other offensive or derogatory pictures, cartoons, pamphlets or sayings,
Forcible physical touch or molestation and
Physical confinement against one's will and any other act likely to violate one's privacy.

Objectives of the Committee

Prevent discrimination and sexual harassment against women, by promoting gender amity among students and employees;
Make recommendations to teh Director for changes / elaborations in the Rules for students in the Prospectus and the Bye-Laws, to make them gender just and to lay down procedures for the prohibition, resolution, settlement and prosecution of acts of discrimination and sexual harassment against women, by the students and the employees;
Deal with cases of discrimination and sexual harasment against women, in a time bound manner, aiming at ensuring support services to teh victimized and termination of the harassment;
Recommend appropriate punitive action against the guilty party to the Director.

The Committee seeks to achieve these Goals through :

Dissemination of Information - through production, distribution and cirulation of printed materials, posters and hand outs.
Awareness Workshops - about sexual harassment for faculty, non-teaching staff and students. The aim is to develop nonthreatening and non-intimidating atmosphere of mutual learning.
Counselling - Confidential counselling service is an important service as it provides a safe space to speak about the incident and how it has affected the victim because sexual harassment cases are rarely reported and is a sensitive issue.

Role / Functions of the Cell:

The office of the Cell is an educational resource as well as a complaint centre for the members of the faculty, staff and students of the college. Its mandate is

To provide a neutral, confidential and supportive environment for members of the campus community who may have been sexually harassed
To advise complainants of the informal and formal means of resolution as specified by the Cell
To ensure the fair and timely resolution of sexual harassment complaints
To provide information regarding counselling and support services on our campus
To ensure that students, faculty and staff are provided with current and comprehensive materials on sexual harassment and assault;
To promote awareness about sexual harassment through educational initiatives that encourages and fosters a respectful and safe campus environment.

The Cell seeks to inform the campus community of their right to a respectful work and learning environment. It believes that if we practice respect, exercise empathy in our interactions with others so that we do not hurt anyone through what we say or do then we can create a campus that is free of sexual harassment. Simple respect for all on the campus community is thus the focus.

Procedure to file/report a complaint:

The Committee deals with issues relating to sexual harassment at the College. It is applicable to all students, staff and faculty. A complaint of discrimination or sexual harassment may be lodged by the victim or a third party. A written complaint may be addressed to the Presiding Officer of the Committee. If the complaint is made to the Principal, Vice Principal, Head or any of the Committee members, they may forward it to the Presiding Officer of the Committee Against Sexual Harassment.

The complainant will have to submit a written and signed complaint addressed to the Secretary of the Cell along with the valid proof/s.
The complainant will also file the complaint through email along with valid proof/s regarding sexual harassment
The Secretary will call the complainant for a personal meeting, usually within a week from the submission of the written complaint.
The members of the Cell will discuss the complaint.
If the case falls outside the purview of the Cell, the complainant will be informed about the same by the appropriate authority.
If the case comes under the purview of the Cell, an enquiry committee will be set up.
