Eve-teasing means teasing the girls in an unfair and indecent way by unruly people causing mental torture to the girls. Eve teasing in recent days has become a great problem for the common people. Most of the time school and college going girls fall a victim to Eve -teasing. Three or four teenager boys or even more grown up boys are seen standing at the corner of the road. They wear a strange fashionable dress and long hair. Some of them smoke.
When they see any young girl or woman passing by, they pass comments towards them. At this, the girls or women feel very embarrassed and dishonored. Eve -teasers even do not hesitate to tease the mother of a girl. As a result, the situation has become very difficult for girls. If anyone protests Eve -teasing, the teasers become violent and threaten the person who protests. They even threaten girls to death or physical torture. In this regard, it is very difficult to tolerate the situation. Girls are afraid of going out. They even feel insecure to go to schools and colleges. Government has become quite aware of stopping this malpractice. Government has already empowered mobile courts to stop eve -teasing. Anyone, convicted of harassment of stalking of women will face a year in jail or a fine about 70 dollars or both. The mobile court has given authority to give punishment to the eve -teasers at once. Education Ministry has also initiated with the declaration that 13 June as the Eve -Teasing Protection Day which is encouraged to protect this social evil.
