Abstract
In recent years, the issue of trafficking of women and young girls has been of growing concern for the national and international community. The business of trafficking is the third largest and the most profitable organised crime. The common targets of such exploitation are girls from poor families, living in rural or semi urban areas, where the traffickers trap them either with the lure of ‘jobs’ or marry them with little or no dowry and then sell them to madams and brothel owners in red light areas. This paper deals with the extent and magnitude of the problem of trafficking, focusing on such aspects as modus operandi, the Immoral Traffic Prevention Act, and the role of NGOs in the prevention and protection of trafficking.
