Make sector 77 safer @DC_Gurugram @gurgaonpolice @rakeshdaultabad

[Nishtha @_nishthagupta]

The alley behind Emaar palm hills sec 77 Gurugram (kherki) which leads up to the houses of domestic and other informal workers that work in nearby societies is site of perpetual sexual harassment. @DC_Gurugram @SHOwomenpolice1 @TheSafecityApp pls take notice.

[Nishtha @_nishthagupta]

The alley is a kuccha road used mostly by the workers who have to walk to the condos where they work. Harassment has become a daily nuisance for these women. @DC_Gurugram @gurgaonpolice @TheSafecityApp

[Nishtha @_nishthagupta]

The strech of alley is hidden from highway traffic and lack any street lighting or presence of any police. drunk, naked men are causing severe fear and trauma to women who have to use the road daily several times. @DC_Gurugram @gurgaonpolice @TheSafecityApp

[Karnataka Sex Workers Union @sexworkersunion]

Ganga Jamuna in Nagpur has been barricaded since the 11th of August 2021. Now they have cut the electricity in the homes of people who live and work there with no regard for them. #UnsealGangaJamuna now!! Read more here: https://t.co/g3hrm0pX3y

The Masterplan is a statutory document that has the power of a law to govern urban development of NCT of Delhi. It is one of the key documents that govern the urban future of Delhi. Read thread to know some of our suggestions to make the city gender-inclusive. @mbd2041 #MPD2041

I can't stop crying. I didn't know Danish personally but his photos of people made me feel that I knew them and I am crying for all of us.

Your policy can't be a public policy sans public participation.

[Jagori Delhi @JagoriSafeDelhi]

The draft #MasterPlanforDelhi 2041 doesn't recognise the role of urban planning in addressing #genderbasedviolence and the @official_dda hasn't included a gender chapter. Baselines have been released 7 days before the deadline for public participation, ignoring extension requests

[Safetipin @safetipin_]

“It took DDA 3 years to make the plan, but ppl have been given just 45 days to submit comments." It's a fair demand to ask for 3-6months for comments on the 500 page document. @JagoriSafeDelhi @mbd2041 @City_Sabha @GautamBhan80 @viswanathkv @MuktaNaik

Numbers rising in my hospital again.

A collated list of comments and signatures by various members of sex worker collectives, allies can be found here: https://t.co/DGtJ0uVALW

Please amplify this call to include sex workers in consultations on the bill to make it truly inclusive. @MinistryWCD #TraffickingBill2021

[Meena Seshu @meenaseshu]

The #TraffickingBill2021 is the younger brother of the UAPA. This is what @sunita_krishnan advocated for. Now we have a law that is aimed at everything but justice fir survivors of #trafficking.

[Shubha Chacko @shubhachacko]

@NNSWIndia Why the rush? Shouldn't the government be holding these consultations? Where are the voices of those who are going to impacted? @MinistryWCD @MoHFW_INDIA

[Meena Seshu @meenaseshu]

The bill is posted for consideration and passing on 19th July in the Lok Sabha. I wonder if government is serious about comments from the community. They gave us 10 days to revert, 14th July and they have already decided its fine to be tabled! #TraffickingBill2021 @RahulGandhi

Everyone knows already that Sci-Hub is the greatest contribution to science and humanity and etc.
Where is my Nobel Peace Prize then? I wonder

[Road Scholarz @roadscholarz]

ONOR ain't no solution to the problems of migrant workers. Real purpose is to promote biometrics, sweetie.

[Migrant Workers Solidarity Network (MWSN) @migrant_IN]

SC directs union/states to begin registration for National Database of Unorganised Workers by 31 July, finish by Dec '21.

Registering migrant workers has been pending since 1979 law because onus is on contractors. Counting workers would embolden them to demand dignity. #NDUW

[Jagori Delhi @JagoriSafeDelhi]

On the #InternationalDomesticWorkersDay 2021, Jagori reiterates it's commitment to support #domesticworkers in claiming their #rights and demanding #dignity and #Respect for their work! Gharelu Kamgaar Mahilaayen Zindabad! @JayaFeminist @suneetadhar @viswanathkv @safetipinapp
