End eve teasing

Eve teasing has assumed alarming proportions in our times. This social disease has many root causes. The solution lies in

1. Compulsory education, at least up to the school level for all. This will keep the mind diverted towards higher goals.

2. Population control is also extremely necessary.

Too many people mean too many mouths to feed which results in financial crunch and abject poverty.

It means less and less employment channels leading to large scale unemployment, which is the root cause of anti-social activities.

3. The most important step to eradicate eve teasing and other vices is to give employment — to the maximum possible number of youth.

If they are gainfully employed, they will hardly have the time or inclination to indulge in such vices.
