VHP to approach corporates over workplace issues regarding Hindu women, says senior leader

The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has announced plans to systematically approach corporate and industry bodies across India to address concerns regarding the alleged targeting and religious victimization of Hindu women at workplaces. During a press conference in Karnataka, VHP Organising General Secretary Milind Parande stated that the organization will meet with national associations, such as FICCI and NASSCOM, to demand stricter enforcement of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act and to raise alarms over “love jihad” and forced conversions. This move follows reports of alleged religious coercion at an IT unit in Nashik, leading the VHP to call for a review of corporate hiring practices and supervisory roles to ensure employee safety. Beyond workplace issues, the leadership also emphasized the need for stricter implementation of cow protection laws and flagged rising concerns over cattle smuggling, warning that a lack of government action could lead to increased social unrest.
