In this episode of The xMonks Drive Podcast, Gaurav Arora sits down with Vishal Bhasin — a Criminal Profiling & Forensic Psychology professional and one of India’s leading experts on Workplace Sexual Harassment (PoSH Act).
This is a raw, high-impact conversation on how workplace harassment cases actually happen, how they are investigated, how evidence is evaluated, and why power dynamics can completely change outcomes.

✅ In this episode, we cover:
• What counts as Workplace Sexual Harassment in India (PoSH explained)
• How intent vs impact is judged in real workplace cases

• How power & hierarchy influence workplace behaviour
• False complaints vs unproven complaints (and the real numbers)

This episode is especially relevant for:
