Child trafficking manifests in the form of domestic labour, forced child labour across industries, and illegal activities such as begging, organ trade and commercial sex purposes. Estimates show that children account for one in every three detected victims of trafficking worldwide; this rises to one in two in low-income countries.<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) reported a staggering statistic: an average of eight children fell victim to trafficking every day in India.<\/em><\/strong> These cases encompassed various forms of exploitation, including forced labor, begging, and sexual exploitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The figures reveal a concerning trend, with 2,834 cases documented in 2018, 2,914 in 2019, and 2,222 in 2020.<\/em><\/strong> It’s important to note that these statistics only account for confirmed trafficking cases, excluding instances of missing children. The true extent of the issue may be more profound than these numbers suggest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
