1).The community which celebrates folk dances in festivals together with both genders are far safer and men have less resentment and stereotypes towards women
The best example is gujarat and north east india where community celebrates garba, thabal and folk dances together....hence both genders grow with each other in respectful way...
Folk dances create positive vibe in our society....every indian person should participate in it....
2.) And the second way is by pointing every man and woman as bhai and behen rather than sir and madam as sir and madam term is being destroyed by bollywood for its gain and promoting cheapness in society
3.) Strictness over bollywood by censor board for not letting any vulgar things shown to people
4.) Banning not part of our culture....

What india is suffering today....too much violence against women is what USA, UK and France are going through same...
Our problems can't be solved by mughal ways by segregation of gender throughout the life span or by anerican ways which promote gender mixing by club and alcohol both culture are harmful to society in long terms .

Regions like UP, bihar, delhi, west bengal suffers from mughal culture due to their history....hence no respect to women
We need to mix our society in respectful way where both gender respect each other
If men and women have positive view towards each other....they would never harm each other in this
We shouldn't raise our daughters as attention seekers and sons as
This problem could be only solved ...by how our vedic ancient india used to respect for each other... "Discipline and Respect are the key cause" ....west just garlands or put honour towards men who take tons of ladies in his life span and treat women as secondary object....
The problem with our society is we are already following western or mughal values which objectifies

I am Bangladeshi student...
Recently there has been a quota movement in our country...
One thing is clear from here that no one could ever do anything against the students.
We ousted the Prime Minister of the country by protesting, we ousted the faka policemen.
So indian students, you can also get exact things, and shake of some dirt from this society.
Go Ahead... 😶😶😶😐😐😐
