Dear Ms Rina Mukherjee, I
almost cried after reading your description of
what happened with you at I
sent out your email to some 100-odd people in
my address book and have suggested that they send
a protest letter to The Statesman top brass. I
am sharing with you my letter, which I sent to
Irani, Ravindra Kumar and I appreciate the fact that you have decided to take your struggle to the last and this is to assure you that you have my support and that of scores of others. Wishing you the very best S.
Anand, Outlook, Chennai Dear all, As a follow-up to the earlier mail on sexual harassment at The Statesman, please send a letter protesting the harassment of Rina Mukherjee by Ishan Joshi to the following email id-s. Ravindra
Kumar, ravindra@thestatesman.net,
ravindrakumar@thestatesman.net Dear Mr Ravindra Kumar and C.R. Irani I was deeply disturbed to read about the sexual harassment of Rina Mukherjee at The Statesman by News Coordinator Ishan Joshi. It is most unfortunate, regrettable and ridiculous that Ms. Mukherjee should have been forced to leave, while actually the perpetrator of the crime, Mr Joshi, was allowed to continue. What this effectively means is that Mr Joshi has been encouraged by the management to feel free to continue with similar sexual harassment at the workplace. The Statesman editorial office is clearly not a safe place for women to work as long as Mr Joshi is on the prowl. As a concerned citizen and a mediaperson, I therefore request you to forthwith terminate the services of Mr Joshi and reinstate Ms Rina Mukherjee as a 'senior reporter' after tendering an apology to her. As the oldest English langauge newspaper in the country, I hope you would be concerned about the example you are setting. Sincerely For
