Sunitha explains, “Trafficking is done not just for prostitution. It could be for labour, trafficking could be for begging, for slavery, for forced marriage, for domestic work." https://t.co/ETC4LuGacJ @sunita_krishnan@PMOIndia@Manekagandhibjp
Incidents like the sale of babies by Missionaries of Charity home, rape of minor girls by a self-styled godman in Delhi & rape of a 9 year old girl by Maulana raise a basic question: Why are residential religious institutions allowed to run without checks?https://t.co/uxlJRq8DyA
A person trafficked for the purpose of prostitution/commercial sexual exploitation is a victim of organized crime and has a right to rehabilitation. The current Anti Trafficking Bill recognizes it.Hope parliamentarians also recognize it @ShashiTharoor@ManekaGandhibjp

Action On Human Trafficking "Disproportionately Low" In India: US Report. Tier-2 suggests that the govt of India doesn't fully meet the TVPA's minimum standards. Support the govt. in passing the Trafficking of Persons Bill here: https://t.co/iiGcIkWH7j
The Govt. of India does not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking; however, it is making significant efforts to do so. Therefore, India remained on Tier 2 with regards to human-trafficking.

Child Marriage robs children of their childhood. Take a pledge with us to fight this social evil. https://t.co/NzGX2XQOE8
#StopChildMarriage#EveryLastChild
This moral apathy that surrounds the most vulnerable children is terrifying. I urge leaders to rise above partisan politics, religion, faith and institutions. There can be no nation first if children and their childhoods are second.

"Let me be a child,
let me play, let me run,
Let me know what it is to have fun
Let all my problems, for once, be shun.."
Are we human enough to understand their pain and raise our voice against #ChildTrafficking?#StandUp4HumanRights#MujheBhiGharJanaHai
@YESFoundationIN
2 traffickers have been given 14 years of imprisonment, this the highest punishment ever for this crime against children. I applaud Judge NV Emmanuel. It s a strong signal that India's judiciary stands with her children
