A hidden camera was found in the bathroom of a Tata Electronics women’s hostel in Hosur, and authorities have arrested a woman and her boyfriend in connection with the incident. The discovery has raised serious privacy concerns among workers and management alike. Investigators are reviewing security footage and hostel access logs as part of the probe.
Hundreds of women workers staged a sit-in outside Vidiyal Residency, demanding that all hostel bathrooms be searched for cameras and that immediate steps be taken to safeguard staff privacy. The protest signaled growing anxiety about workplace safety and the treatment of employees living on site.
