They discussed in detail the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, the importance of knowing one’s legal property rights, and the laws ensuring a safe and equal working environment for women.
The session was moderated by Dr. Ishfaq Ahmad Yatoo, Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, who skillfully guided the flow of the programme and engaged the audience with relevant reflections and thoughtful interventions.
The event saw a large turnout of participants, including students, teaching faculty, and members from the local community. The interactive sessions helped participants clarify their doubts and understand the importance of standing up against any form of injustice or discrimination faced by women.
The programme was organised under the leadership of Prof. (Dr.) Ab. Rashid Malik and Dr. Nuzhat Jabeen, Head of the Department of Botany and Convenor of the Women Development Cell, who also briefed the audience about the objectives of the programme and the ongoing efforts of the Women Development Cell to address gender-related concerns.
