Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Close on the heels of rape charges against Additional Divisional Railway manager (ADRM), West Central Railway (WCR) released a ‘Handbook on Departmental Inquiry in Sexual Harassment Cases’.
The handbook, written by Sanjay Kumar Sinha, Investigating Officer, WCR, was released by WCR General Manager Sudhir Kumar Gupta. The handbook highlights the use of rules during departmental inquiry to ensure justice to Railway women employees facing sexual harassment, according to WCR officials.
