Singh, who shared his valuable insights on the legal rights and protections available to women under Indian law. He emphasized the importance of awareness, legal literacy, and institutional mechanisms in combating sexual harassment, and was well-received by faculty and students alike.
The event was held under the patronage of the College Principal Dr. Shallu Samyal, who in her address, underscored the role of educational institutions in empowering students, especially women, through informed discourse and proactive measures. She commended the efforts of both the Women Development Cell and CASH for organizing such a vital program.
