The project was initiated as a pilot in selected 3 blocks in three different district of Kerala, namely Devikulam block in Idukki District, Chittur Block in Palakkad District, and Mananthavady block in Wynad District. These blocks were identified from the district on the basis of certain parameters like the highest migration rate, highest poverty population, highest SC population, highest ST population, closed down to tea estates in the high ranges, selected blocks bordering with neighboring states such as Tamilnadu & Karnataka. AHT aims to restrain and contain human trafficking in the selected blocks. Project also aims to rehabilitate the victims through economic rehabilitation and reintegration with the community. AHT interventions have helped to locate the trafficked and vulnerable persons in the selected blocks. AHT not only protect women and children but the man folk from the threats of human trafficking by defending their rights and dignity, providing a safe environment, supporting their education and health. High risk groups (Vulnerable to traffic) were identified through the AHT intervention such as house visit, survey and focus group discussions. As part of the rehabilitation process of these High risk people Kudumbashree provide livelihood support to the identified. As a part of Anti Human Trafficking project Migration centers have started in these three blocks for the coordination of the activities and for the prevention of trafficking in that area. Snehitha Gender Help Desk, round the clock working short stay home is also started as a part of Anti Human Trafficking in these districts. Human Trafficking Human trafficking is the action or practice of illegally transporting people from one country or area to another, typically for the purposes of forced labor or commercial sexual exploitation. Trafficking involves an act of recruiting, transporting, transferring, harboring or receiving a person through the use of force, coercion or other means, for the purpose of exploiting them for personal gain, usually monetary gain. Human trafficking is second most lucrative crime in the world. Human trafficking is also called „‟Modern-day slavery‟‟, at all times it is slavery at its core The main purposes of human trafficking are prostitution, sexual exploitation, child marriage, child labor, forced labor, slavery or similar practice, panhandling, removal of organs etc. Human trafficking is thought to be one of the fastest-growing activities of trans-national criminal organizations. The goal of a trafficker is to turn a human being into a slave. Human trafficking is also condemned as a violation of human rights and child rights. Although human trafficking can occur at local levels, it has transnational implications. Trafficked people are held against their will through acts of coercion, and forced to work for or provide services to the trafficker or others. 3 In India, the trafficking is considered an organized crime. The Government of India applies the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act 2013, as well as Section 370 and 370A IPC. Additionally, a Regional Task Force implements the SAARC Convention on the prevention of Trafficking in Women and Children. On 20th February 2014 a government web portal, the „‟Anti Human Trafficking‟‟ had been launched. Sex trafficking victims face threats of violence from many sources, including customers, pimps, brothel owners etc. Trafficking victims are also exposed to different psychological stressors. Victim of trafficking gets high amounts of psychological stress induced by threats, fear, and physical and emotional violence. Victims are often cut off from all forms of social connection, as isolation allows the perpetrator to destroy the victim's sense of self and increase his or her dependence on the perpetrator. Human trafficking victims may experience sexual abuse, domestic violence, forced prostitution, or gang rape, chronic stress experienced by many victims of human trafficking can compromise the immune system. Sex trafficking victims face threats of violence from many sources, including customers, pimps, brothel owners etc. Trafficking victims are also exposed to different psychological stressors, On the other hand, trafficking leads to the proliferation of HIV, because victims, being vulnerable and often young/inexperienced, cannot protect themselves properly, and get infected. Types of human trafficking Sexual Exploitation/ Prostitution/Pornography - Sexual exploitation is the main crux of human trafficking. Victims are forced to working in brothels, massage parlors, prostitution rings or strip clubs, or used to produce pornographic materials. Labor Exploitation- Victims of human trafficking are forced to work in plantations, textiles, mines or in other hazardous conditions, such as handling of chemicals and pesticides or operation machines. These victims are not even paid. Children are also being victims and child labor takes place. Domestic Work-Children between5-14 is taken away from parents; parents are attracted with the promises of good education or job. Wherein are engaged in domestic work. These victims are sorely dependent on their exploiters for safety, food and shelter and most endure harsh working conditions. They do not have any form of identification and as such cannot attempt escape. 4 Organ Harvesting- One of the purpose of human trafficking is organ harvesting. Traffickers remove organs or tissues for reuse, such as in organ transplantation. The victim is compelled into giving up an organ. Sometimes victim agrees to sell an organ in exchange of money/goods, but is not paid or paid less. Organ harvesting often seeks kidneys, liver, eyes. Panhandling- To a certain extent Begging or panhandling is also a part of human trafficking. In basic children and women are used for begging at traffic signals, on footpath, at religious spot once after their organs had been removed. Objectives of AHT (Anti Human Trafficking) -The main goal of the project is to develop a community response, referral and protocols to assist women and girls who are trafficked for exploitation within selected blocks. AHT want to see these block where the innocence, weakness, and vulnerability of any human being is not exploited by others for exploitation and trafficking. Every human being born to lead a life full of options and enjoys a right to choose, a victim of trafficking is not re-victimized but has a fair chance of social recognition, and the society becomes more compassionate to the victims and intolerant of injustice. Here are the main objectives and goals of AHT: - To provide human trafficking awareness to all community members and government and non government agencies in these three blocks. (Devikulam, Chittur and Manathavady) To create Awareness among the victims of trafficking and exploitation of their human and civil rights and to empower them through interventions and convergence programs. Technical skilling and economic rehabilitation To facilitate rehabilitation of the victims, escapees and survivors identified by AHT cells. Reintegration with the community Bringing in the affected and vulnerable to the Kudumbashree network. Reduce and prevent human trafficking in these three block Provide counseling and crisis intervention to trafficked persons. Coordinate services for trafficked persons Contribute to provincial and national efforts to eliminate human trafficking Increase awareness and understanding about human trafficking in the region Comprehensive rehabilitation - Victims of human trafficking. Establish and run a Network against Human Trafficking. 5 Interventions of anti human trafficking project 1.

    CLAIMS, HISTORIES, MEANINGS: INDIGENEITY AND LEGAL PLURALISM IN INDIA by POOJA PARMAR B.A. Hons., Panjab University, 1993 LL.B., Panjab University, 1996 LL.M., The University of British Columbia, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Law) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2012 © Pooja Parmar, 2012 Abstract This dissertation offers critical insights into issues of access to justice by tracing the gains and losses in meaning across multiple accounts of a dispute that began with Adivasi protests against Hindustan Coca‐Cola Beverages Private Ltd. in a village in Kerala in South India. A sit‐in agitation started by Adivasi residents of the area in 2002, soon after the company set up a beverage bottling plant in the middle of small hamlets and began extracting large amounts of groundwater, is now in its tenth year. The juxtaposition of the various popular, legal and Adivasi accounts of this dispute enables a closer look at the ways in which meanings change as claims originating in contested, layered histories and in the narratives of displacement and exclusion are translated into the stronger languages of social movements and the formal legal system. Much of the particular and situated meanings, critical to the Adivasis’ experience of injustice and their opposition to the operation of the Coca‐ Cola plant, have been eclipsed in the accounts of their many committed supporters, more often than not, in pursuit of justice for the Adivasis. In addition to drawing attention to the practices and processes of literal and conceptual translation, the stories presented here demonstrate that when Adivasi protests against Coca‐Cola are understood on their own terms, in the context of their lives in the place and the stories they tell, the meanings that emerge are quite different from the ones that the available popular and legal accounts convey about these protests.

ABSTRACT Accurate and timely identification of invasive insect pests underpins most biological endeav- ors ranging from biodiversity estimation to insect pest management. In this regard, identifica- tion of thrips, an invasive insect pest is important and challenging due to their complex life cycles, parthenogenetic mode of reproduction, sex and color morphs. In the recent years, DNA barcoding employing 5′ region of the mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase I (CO-I) gene has be- come a popular tool for species identification. In this study, we employed CO-I gene sequences for discriminating 151 species of thrips for the first time. Analyses of the intraspecific and intrageneric distances of the CO-I sequences ranged from 0.0 to 7.91% and 8.65% to 31.15% re- spectively. This study has revealed the existence of cryptic species in Thrips hawaiiensis (Mor- gan) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) and Scirtothrips perseae Nakahara (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) for the first time, along with previously reported cryptic species such asThrips palmi Karny (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), T.
