#MeToo Movement: Swara Bhasker says sexual harassment cases  at workplace are like an epidemic

Actress Swara Bhasker, who has been a supporter of India's #MeToo

movement, says that sexual harassment cases at the workplace are like

an epidemic. She hopes to bring awareness about it via the film and

television industry.

The Cine and TV Artists Association (CINTAA) recently announced that it

will be setting up committees to tackle sexual harassment in the industry

and will have actors Swara Bhasker, Renuka Shahane and Raveena

Tandon among others as members.

Talking about her role in the committee, Swara said, "I am part of a sub-committee which is formed by CINTAA which will

conduct workshop regarding awareness against sexual harassment at the workplace for its members. We have total 24 unions

in our industry and it has more than 5 lakh members in it so we will try to work together on this front with these unions."
