The dignitaries voiced that the girls should fear to speak out, it the most important step to speak out first against any violence. The society should also change its attitude to make the women to look as culprit.
It is not true that every man in society is wrong, but the one who are doing such things should be punished. Though we call our society as patriarchal, but the picture has changed the women are working shoulder to shoulder with men. It because the men in society backed them, otherwise the scenario could have been the same. The women should be treated as a human being first. The society should let her utilize her rights which she has got as a human. There is nothing special or shame to share household courses. The society should normalize these things.”

The society, as well as government agencies, should work in three aspects prevention, risk reduction and after incident. The society should change its attitude to make the girl culprit. We should give her ground to speak up. The girls should come in front and themselves think about the women safety and suggest measures, as they are going through it and they have thought about it more than we do. The women should know how to reduce the risk when such thing happens with her and prevent it on the moment it starts. The students in district are getting self defense training and are guided on every step related to issue.
