RCM’s Commitment to a Safe Campus
The Internal Committee (IC) of RCM works proactively to:
- Prevent, prohibit, and redress sexual harassment
- Spread awareness on gender sensitization
- Ensure confidentiality, justice, and well-being for all stakeholders
We encourage all students, faculty, and staff to use the available platforms to report concerns and be part of a respectful, equitable academic environment.
Modalities for Addressing Complaints:
Upon receiving a complaint, the ICC will conduct a preliminary inquiry by gathering evidence and taking statements from all relevant parties, including witnesses. The committee will then submit a report to the Director or Disciplinary Authority for further action. If the complaint is found not to constitute sexual harassment, it may be referred to the Grievance Redressal Cell or the Director.
If sexual harassment is caused by a third party or outsider, the ICC will take all necessary measures to assist and support the affected individual in accordance with the law.
The ICC will ensure that all inquiries are conducted in a timely manner and in compliance with the AICTE regulations and the Sexual Harassment Act of 2013. False or malicious complaints will be dealt with as per the provisions of the AICTE regulations.
Procedure for Filing a Complaint:
- Any female employee (faculty, student, or staff) who experiences sexual harassment can approach the ICC to seek redress. Complaints can be submitted via email to chairperson.icc@rcm.ac.in.
- In case of sexual harassment, it is advised to reach out for immediate help, and the process will be kept confidential at all times.
