Sexual Harassment Issues

When Rasika was first introduced, she behaved like a vamp, and the Collector ignored her behavior.

Was it normal, to come in and impose herself as a personal assistant ?
Was the Collector given a chance to vet the application, and check her references, or is it just a gimmick to introduce a situation for the CVs -

I would like to see your opinions, as to how people are recruited in Government Offices. Has a boss have any options left to him, or has he to take what is given to him by his Personnel Department ?

From what was shown, Shiv was lax in dealing with this lady from the start, or he was reluctant to interfere in her way of handling herself. Perhaps a stick in time, saves nine and this proverb her forrtgot.

Yesterday we were given another dose of human cruelty. I am sure it is meant to enlighten the viewers. But we should also note that people around just watch and enjoy, like the work mates in Shiv's office. Do they have no minds of their own, to make a correct assessment ? Did Shiv give them any reason by behaving irresponsibly ? When any news comes on the television, what is our tendency, jump to immediate conclusions ? How can we change the Society before changing our own attitudes ?

PA to district collector is a position of huge responsibility and often collectors serve as PAs to other senior heads before taking charge as collectors. You are right, Rasika's appointment as a PA to Shiv was as unconvincing as Shiv's handling of Rasika. Recuritment in Govt office is a well defined process and logically Shiv would be well informed about it. The director has indulged in much creative liberty with this track.
Sexual harassments do happen but in a much subtle, hidden manner.
