HUMAN TRAFFICKING

We humans are so obsessed with money that we didn't think twice before even selling humans for money and a solid supply demand chain is running this 150 billion dollar industry. 

Almost 8 million people are trapped in this suffocating industry,according to a report 62%of those affected by human trafficking lives in Southeast Asia especially comprised of India,Bangladesh,Nepal,bhutan,Afghanistan and srilanka.

Human trafficking is involved with almost all industries and is so interlinked with our day to day consumption that we can't even imagine.the clothes we are purchasing from high end brands,the pharmaceuticals we are using,the makeup industry,begging,sex workers and so much more.

The human slavery and sex workers hold major part in the distribution curve of these trafficked people,childrens and women's are forced to work in the red light areas which ultimately push them into never ending cycle of poverty,uneducation and slavery.

Big brands manufacture thier products in countries where labour is cheap and these labour contractors often use children's in these harmful manufacturing process as there is plenty of supply and children's works for longer hours with less money. For example all big brands of jeans and cargo manufacture thier product in Nepal and large numbers of trafficked children are working as labourers in these factories in horrible conditions. 

These traffickers have strong surveillance system and informers and often target the poor and innocent children's as in poor families generally families are bigger and often thier children's are deprived of attention and love and they became easy bait for these human traffickers.

With the presence of social media and internet it is now super easy for them to identify thier victims as reach of Facebook,Instagram and other platforms is in every nook and corner of the country. 

This unpardonable crime is also linked with illegal organ supply in the medical lobby,as accompanied to a report during covid lakhs of children's who were declared covid positive became victim of this brutal crime and they were killed just to extract organs and supply these in international market. 

I personally think there is much more needed in this earth before expending millions on space missions because our conscience is dead,we neglect a lot and are becoming money making machines which can do anything for the sake of money.

Let's come forward and save millions of lives,start spreading awareness,question the authorities and demand strict actions.

Human trafficking is a complex crime happening at hyper pace and all the countries must take joint steps and share data related to trafficking just to completely choke this.
