Hi All, I am planning to do PhD research in the field of emotional abuse or bullying in the workplace. Can I get inputs on:
Prevalence of Bullying in India
(1) The prevalence of bullying in India.
Policies Against Bullying in Organizations
(2) Any policies against the topic in organizations.
Organizational Interventions
(3) Any interventions from the organization's side.
Does anyone know about any studies done in India based on the topic? Please provide information.
Moreover, I am considering the topic for research. Any help you provide will be valuable.

I am a doctor by profession, and I recently joined a private company that deals with medical check-ups for migrants to foreign countries. I was not given a joining letter but was asked to join via email, which specifies my salary amount as well. After joining the organization, another female doctor has been insisting on favors like giving her a ride back home and sharing food. Within a professional degree of fairness, I have refused her favors on several occasions.
On the 23rd of May, she asked me to accompany her for shopping, which I refused. Following this, though I removed myself from her presence and was sitting in another room, she entered the room that I was sitting in and started verbally abusing me in front of the staff present. Even when I ran to another room, she continued walking up and down the corridor, continuing her verbal outburst. She was accusing me of hurting her sentiments.
Even though I complained to the management, I was chastised for complaining, and the issue is being suppressed as a matter of personal conflict. I have suffered mental agony, and I am unable to continue working in the place. Is there any law in India that protects against bullying by coworkers?

Recorded instances of bullying, unfair labor practices, mala fides on the part of higher-ups, and flouting of the rule of law by those who are the generators of the rule of law in private and government are plentiful. See cited newspaper clippings and citehr threads. Until you are able to show what remedial measures are likely to be forthcoming, it will be a thesis in cold storage of no utility.
