Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Differences between people have been in existence since the rise of human beings on this planet. The inequalities among the people are witnessed in different forms like race, colour, region, religion, caste, wealth, etc. Exploitation of the socially and economically unfortunate people has been identified in new forms after the World War II. Globalization process has changed the functioning of the government and private sector further creating the gap between the rich and poor people in the country. India is the second most populous country in the world and is a developing country. It is taking all the possible steps to provide safety, security, welfare, empowerment and so on to its population. The socio-economic policies meant for the welfare of the people living below poverty line is successful only to some extent. Majority of them face discrimination, hunger, unemployment, ill-treatment, underemployment and so on. They are exploited in one form or the other and especially the women and children are an easy target. Victims of regional imbalances are being exploited by several human traffickers. The human traffickers eagerly search for the victims from the affected areas like disasters, drought, slums, crowded areas viz., bus stops, railway stations, streets, etc. Educational backwardness and poverty is playing a prominent role in paving the way for the exploiters in the business of human trafficking in India apart from that terrorism, factionism, naxalism, insurgency, extremism are a few major instances that lead a way for human traffickers. To overcome this menace the implementation of laws related to curb human trafficking should be strictly followed by the administrative agencies. Above all the inequalities among the people should be lessened by adopting result oriented policies and by empowering them socially, economically and politically coordinating actively along with all the stakeholders at local, national and international levels.
