CONCLUSION

In Pakistan’s case, unfortunately, the law only serves as a piece of paper and the
process of implementing the law itself is a tedious and futile process. Many cases
linger on in courts for years on end, until they are forgotten. This causes a large
part of the population to discourage women, who fall victim to harassment, from
legally pursuing their cases. In our country, many women hesitate while
reporting their cases because of societal pressure thus the reported harassment
cases are not accurate. Women in our country lack awareness and if any woman
tries to raise her voice is suppressed by her family or society. In our country,
women are dictated to suppress any feelings of harassment.
With the creation of multiple social media platforms and better awareness
among female women are encouraged to speak against their harassers. The
government itself cannot eradicate the harassment among females if they are
not willing to raise their voices. The government of the country must ensure that
the law is strictly obeyed and that harassed women in society are not deprived of
their rights to justice. The government of the country must make efforts to
provide a safe place for women to live where they can live freely without the
fear of being harassed or discriminated against. The government must improve
the judicial system of the country so that victims are not denied justice nor they
are judged. No doubt in recent years some preventive measures have been
taken and some laws are passed against the harassers. Now with time, women
are becoming aware of their basic rights and thus, are struggling to get justice.
Laws like the chemical castration of rapists, after the Zainab case, have cast fear
among the majority of men. However, these laws are not effectively
administered in the country, which leaves women vulnerable to harassment and
other offenses.
