June 25, 2014 12:50

Women journalists in Mumbai have decided to wear a black ribbon today as a mark of protest over the harassment of women at the workplace. This comes in the wake of the attempted suicide of India TV anchor on Sunday by consuming poison at the channel's office in Sector 85.

The woman was immediately admitted in an ICU at Kailash Hospital and her condition is said to be stable.

Sources in the channel said the woman had posted a suicide note on a social networking website, in which she had named senior channel officials of betrayal and hatching a conspiracy against her.
