In UP, neither male tailors will be able to take measurements of women’s clothes, nor male trainers will be able to give training in the gym, proposal of Women’s Commission

Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh State Women’s Commission has given a proposal to protect women from “bad touch” and to stop the bad intentions of men. According to this, men (male tailors) should not stitch women’s clothes nor cut their hair. This proposal was put forward by Babita Chauhan, President of State Women’s Commission, which was supported by other members present in the meeting.

Let us tell you that after a meeting of the Women’s Commission held on October 28, many such suggestions were given, which include not allowing men to take measurements of women and installing CCTV cameras at shops etc. At present, this is just a proposal and the Women’s Commission will later request the state government to make a law in this regard. It will be the responsibility of the district administration to ensure that the rules of the Women’s Commission are followed.

In this regard, UP Women’s Commission member Himani Agarwal told the news agency on Friday – In the recent Women’s Commission meeting, a proposal was put forward that only female tailors should take measurements of clothes worn by women. Also, CCTV cameras should be installed at the shop. Himani Agarwal said, “We have also said that only female barbers should take care of female customers in the salon. Because, we believe that women are harassed because of men involved in such profession. They (men) try to misbehave. Some men also do not have good intentions.” However, she also said that it is not that all men have bad intentions.
