Abstract
Though the heading of this paper aims to focus on human trafficking and sexual harassment, the author has taken this opportunity to lay down the historical aspects on how violence against women arose and why it is still persistent today. This paper talks about many similar topics ranging from women in the Vedic Age to pornography to case laws that paved the way for today’s legislations on laws protecting women.
