Eve teasing, often known as "sexual harassment" is a regular occurrence for the women and girls of Bangladesh. It is a malpractice of a male person upon a female person physically and mentally with a bad intention in different ways. They utter any negative word, makes any sound or gesture to the female person. There are many causes of eve teasing. Lack of education is one of the causes of eve teasing. Lack of moral value and free exposure to ultra modern fashion causes eve-teasing. Want of consciousness of law enforcement agencies is another reason for it. There are also some impacts of eve-teasing. It disencourages the girl's education. The girls are pushed to early marriage. We should take effective steps for removing this social curse. Education system must be modified, Teachers must play their rule to disencourage eve-teasing. The law enforcing agency should be conscious to stop eve-teasing. Already many eve teasers have been brought to book by the mobile courts in different places. Above all, raising public awareness can play an important role to stop this heinous act.
