A BMC male employee was attacked by a female colleague in front of other staff. He reported the incident to senior management with witness statements, but no action was taken. What legal recourse does he have under BMC regulations and Indian law?

Under Indian law, the BMC employee has the right to report the assault to the police. He can also file a complaint with the BMC’s internal grievance redressal mechanism and seek disciplinary action against the attacker. Additionally, he can pursue a civil lawsuit for damages arising from the assault.
