LUCKNOW: Even Indian lady police constables are now not safe in India, as a lady police constable has alleged sexual harassment by the seniors of her department.
In a video that is making rounds on the social media, a police woman of Lucknow in her video clip is seen crying while revealing that she is being sexually harassed by her seniors.

Chief justice Ranjan Gogoi said the accusations made by a 35-year-old former court assistant were “unbelievable” and an attempt to stop him hearing important cases.
