My aunt is often called “ladies” by some women in the neighborhood. Can we do anything about this?

Under Indian law, using terms like “ladies” to refer to someone can be considered disrespectful and offensive, particularly if it’s used with the intention to belittle or demean. While there is no specific law against using such terms, you can address this issue by politely asking the individuals to refrain from using such language. If the behavior continues, you can consider bringing it to the attention of the local community leader or authorities.
