FACTUAL MATRIX

The brief facts are that the petitioner was working as a Lower Division Clerk (LDC) with Aryabhat Polytechnic under the supervision of Respondent no. 2 who allegedly used to call her inside his office to make phone calls or to keep the files of the office. On 12/9/2008, the office superintendent Ms. Veena Bhutani had asked the petitioner to go the office of the respondent no. 2 for making a call to J.A.O. Accordingly, the petitioner had gone to the office of the respondent no. 2 and made the said call. Thereafter, it is alleged that when she gave receiver to the respondent no. 2, he with bad intention had deliberately caught her hand and tried to outrage her modesty. The petitioner has also alleged that she somehow managed to free her hand from Respondent No.2 and told him that he does not have any manners, but he threatened her that if she discloses this fact to anybody, he will get her transferred.

(3.) It is the case of the petitioner that she disclosed this incident to Ms. Veena Bhutani but she did not pay any heed to her request, and rather told the petitioner that it was her personal matter and she should sort it out herself. Thereafter, the petitioner filed complaint dtd. 16/9/2008 to Joint Secretary of Directorate of Technical Training Education on which no action was taken, and later the petitioner sent a complaint to the Chief Secretary, NCT Delhi on which no action was taken either.
