Abstract

The study is a comparison and analysis of the laws relating to sexual harassment in Pakistan and India, in light of the legal feminist theory. An attempt is made to identify gaps in them and amendments are proposed. The law is supposed to act as a protector, but it seems to have failed in providing much-needed protection to women. The study discusses the reasons behind this failure and proposes certain amendments for lawmakers to ensure women’s rights in the current changing environment.
