Drawing strength from the online naming and shaming of comic and YouTuber Utsav Chakraborty, at least two women took to Twitter to call out and accuse Mayank Jain, a journalist at Business Standard, for indecency and sexually harassment.

A former journalist with Scroll.in and BloombergQuint, Jain was accused of sexual harassment in 2017 as well.

On Friday, 5 October, a female journalist called Jain a “sexual predator” – adding that she had been at the “receiving end of this man’s unwelcome sexual predations” (sic).
