Female harassment is a disease spreading in our society. Whenever we hear the word "harassment" we think of a street bully or gangster but to our surprise, the cancer is spreading through one of the sacred places of society, the educational institutions. Female harassment in Pakistan is becoming more common in universities, as thousands of harassment cases have been reported in universities. Teachers in the universities have unlimited authority and use their powers to exploit students, especially female ones.

Generally, the university harassment committee members are also involved in harassing students, so normally the female students hesitate while approaching the university harassment committee as they usually protect their colleagues.
