NO Male Tailor Should Take Women's Measurements in India

SIBY JEYYA
To protect women in the state, the Uttar Pradesh State Women's Commission has put out several drastic proposals. Male tailors are prohibited from taking women's measurements, and males are not allowed to instruct women in yoga or at gyms. The committee has also suggested that female security guards be on school buses and that women's apparel businesses employ female employees as part of the new safety standards that aim to "improve security for women in public and commercial spaces."


At a conference held in lucknow on october 28, commission members examined several strategies to improve women's safety, including these recommendations. The talks are preliminary," panel member Maneesha Ahlawat told TOI on Thursday. The viability of these suggestions has not yet been determined. Following approval, the government will review these suggestions and establish a policy for implementation at the grassroots level. Hamid Hussain, the district probation officer for Shamli, has already given institutions orders to begin implementing these rules. According to Hussain, important recommendations include installing CCTV systems with DVR capability and requiring female instructors or trainers in women's gyms, theater centers, and yoga centers.
 

"School buses are now required to have a female security guard or teacher present," Hussain stated. "With active CCTV surveillance, boutique centers must use female tailors to take women's measurements. Coaching centers must also have enough bathroom facilities and CCTV surveillance. women must work at stores that provide apparel and accessories for women in order to help clients. Veena Agrawal, a Shamli-based social worker, praised the project. "We applaud the Women's Commission's endeavor. "These steps are intended to improve safety and guarantee a positive atmosphere for women in a variety of public and commercial settings throughout the state," she told TOI.
