History

Historical Context

The 2005 Vishaka v. State of Rajasthan judgment, delivered by the Indian Supreme Court, mandated nationwide workplace harassment safeguards. The ruling required every firm employing ten or more staff to form a five-member complaints committee, costing corporations an estimated INR2 billion annually. Hyderabad police opened a murder case after B Sirisha, a 34-year-old bank executive, vanished from OYO room 103, prompting investigators to invoke the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The precedent foresees stricter enforcement of the new code, compelling ministries to allocate INR500 million for victim-support units nationwide.
