Sex trafficking operates as a business, where women are treated as commodities within a global market for sex. Traffickers profit from a supply of vulnerable women, international demand for sex slavery, and a viable means of transporting victims. Globalization and the expansion of free market capitalism have increased these factors, leading to a dramatic increase in sex trafficking. Globalization has also brought new dimensions to the fight against sex trafficking.

  • Bhilwara Sur Sangam Celebrates Its 5Th Edition 07Th Mar, 2016
    Bhilwara Sur Sangam Celebrates its 5th Edition New Delhi, March 7, 2016: LNJ Bhilwara Group, one of country's leading business conglomerates with presence in textiles and power, concluded its two day annual cultural musical festival, Bhilwara Sur Sangam on Sunday. Top classical artists including Arnab Chakrabarty, Dr Ashwini Bhide Deshpande, Ustad Rashid Khan and Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan performed and enthralled the audience in the 5th edition of this program. The blend of young musicians fusing their talents with veterans of Indian classical tradition and one of the rarest jugalbandi of vocal and sitar amused the music lovers of the city. The first day of the musical fest saw performance by Arnab Chakrabarty, whose rigorous approach to musical aesthetics and unique tonal quality hypnotized the listeners. This was followed by a mesmerizing performance of Dr Ashwini Bhide Deshpande who is an outstanding vocalist of the famed ‘Jaipur- Atrauli’ Khayal Gayaki tradition. She represented the new generation of veterans worthy of wearing the mantle of the old masters. Evolved from Dhrupad singing, the Jaipur- Atrauli Gharan acquired its name and status as a Gharana in the early half of the 20th century as a result of the growing popularity of stalwarts of this Gharana. She presented some signature and speciality Raags of this Gharana. Mr Ravi Jhunjhunwala, Chairman, LNJ Bhilwara Group said, “We have always endeavored to spread the rich heritage of Indian classical music through Bhilwara Sur Sangam.

  • Farley Prostitution, Sex Trade, COVID-19 Pandemic
    1 Prostitution, the Sex Trade, and the COVID-19 Pandemic by Melissa Farley [1] Logos - a journal of modern society & culture Spring 2020 Volume 19 #1 The COVID-19 pandemic has had immediate and severe impacts on women in the sex trade who are already among the most vulnerable women on the planet. Because of quarantines, social distancing, governments’ neglect of the poor, systemic racism in all walks of life including healthcare, failure to protect children from abuse, and the predation of sex buyers and pimps – the coronavirus pandemic threatens already-marginalized women’s ability to survive. Even before the pandemic, sex buyers and pimps inflicted more sexual violence on women in the sex trade than any other group of women who have been studied by researchers (Hunter, 1994; Farley, 2017). The greater the poverty, the greater the likelihood of violent exploitation in the sex trade, as noted 26 years ago by Dutch researcher Ine Vanwesenbeeck (1994). This article will discuss the impact of COVID-19 as it increases harms resulting from the poverty and violent exploitation of prostitution, an oppressive institution built on foundations of sexism and racism. Women in the sex trade are in harm’s way for many reasons including a lack of food, shelter, and healthcare, all of which increase their risk of contracting COVID19. Understanding what it’s like to be anxious about access to food and shelter is key to understanding the risks taken by people in prostitution. Knowing they were risking their lives, many women prostituted during the pandemic. “Poverty will kill us before the coronavirus,” said an Indian woman in prostitution (Dutt, 2020).

    Indian National Congress - Nationalist Congress Mumbai Municipal Elections 2012 Joint Manifesto Introduction The Mumbai Municipal Corporation(Mahanagarpalika) Elections are being held on 16th February, 2012. Mumbai, the capital city of Maharashtra and the financial capital of the country has a population of over 124 million people (as per the 2011 census). The Mumbai Municipal Corporation is the biggest Municipal Corporation in Asia. This election is extremely important for the citizens of Mumbai as it determines their way of life. It is this election that makes available to them all the modern and infra- structural facilities and also prepares Mumbai to meet the expectations of an international tourist destination. Earlier in 2009, elections for the Parliament and the Legislative Assembly were held where the voters expressed their faith in the congress and its allies by voting for UPA to form the government in centre and Progressive Democratic Front (An alliance of Congress and Nationalist Congress Front) in the State. And it’s all because of people’s trust in the leadership of the Congress Party President Smt. Sonia Gandhi and the President of Nationalist Congress Party Shri. Sharad Pawar, Both the parties could come to power in Delhi and in Maharashtra respectively. Also, in the recently concluded elections for the Municipal council and corporations in Maharashtra State, the people expressed their trust by giving the Congress and National Congress Party a comfortable majority. This alliance stands for the poor and fights for dalits and the downtrodden, it motivates the minority, embraces the common man, inspires the youth and protects the rights of the womenfolk .These attributes have won Congress and Nationalist Congress Party the trust and love of the people.

  • Should Prostitution Be Legalized? Deepen Upadhyaya, National
    Should Prostitution Be Legalized? Deepen Upadhyaya, National Institute of Mass Communication & Journalism, India The Asian Conference on the Social Sciences 2014 Official Conference Proceedings 0510 Abstract The subject of my research paper is “Should prostitution be legalized?” it is written with context of old Indian culture and the phase of changes in society. Where at one point of time just like the cast system even the profession of sex workers was socially accepted and respectable! But gradually due to the change of time and cultural diversities, this profession and people in it became socially out casted. I have tried to show the kind of treatment given to this segment of society and also given history of its beginning to its current state. Based on various reference book and history of India from Ancient to modern time is given for the same. Along with history of Indian civilization where in different stages, with different monarch, and different society with religious changes of that time, I have tried to cover the account of same profession of sex workers in concurrent society of other countries like Europe, Turkey and USA. This is to show a comparative study of Sex workers. By writing this research paper my initiation is to show the conflict of a segment of society who is rejected by the advent of time, which is now ill-treated and exploited by the underworld and by society itself. What preventive measures can be taken to give them social, political and professional right with security; most importantly acceptance in the society of today’s times.
