Interstate Child Trafficking racket busted in Delhi & Rajasthan

-

Child trafficking has become the largest trade after the drug market both in India and in other countries. Poverty leads families to certain vulnerabilities and these vulnerabilities lead to exploitation. Many poor families are lured into trafficking in hopes of employment, a better future for their kids, or financial benefits. But in most cases, these kids are either sexually abused/ exploited or forced into labor and prostitution. 


Money can make people do the worst of worst things one of which is trafficking. People involved in trafficking prove to be very dangerous, as kids once trafficked are hard to find and rescue.


In a recent event, 6 women of an alleged gang involved in infant trafficking were arrested in Delhi. The gang is believed to be involved in the trafficking of around 50 infants.  They lured poor families with money and sold these infants to childless couples at a much higher amount. This has become a source of income and a business for many such gangs.


On the 17th of December, Delhi police got a tip of this exchange near Shamshan Ghat in Gandhi Nagar, where three women were arrested with a 6-7months old baby boy. The very next day 3 more women were arrested who were trying to sell a baby girl. 


Again this week in Alwal district of Rajasthan two more suspects named Rajinder Kaur(48yrs) of Sadar locality and Anand Kumar (38yrs) of Khairthal locality were arrested who were trying to sell a baby girl. All these people involved are believed to be members of the interstate trafficking racket.


Based on the reports of Police around 13 members of this interstate gang have been arrested. The gang was busted when two women and a man in an auto were traveling to sell the kids. The auto driver on listening to their conversations drove the auto directly to the police station and the infants were rescued. 


Delhi police are expecting to execute further arrests based on the interrogation and findings from these suspects.


Kids involved in trafficking are denied normal growth and development. For the sake of young life, it’s important that we try to destroy these gangs involved in such trade as it’s a serious crime as well as a violation of human rights.

Controversies & Protests regarding the ban of hijab in colleges

-
A very popular saying is that one thing leads to another, what's required is just a small push. In December a government girls college in Udupi did not allow 6 girls to enter the college because they were wearing hijab. The college officials closed the gate while they tried to enter the college premises and asked them to remove their hijabs. The intention behind the authorities taking such an action was to avoid discrimination on college premises and to avoid following any culture and traditions inside the school but the question here is if you are trying to avoid discrimination then why not ask Punjabis to remove their turban, why not ask Hindus to stop wearing bindis, and tika to college. Every individual has the right to follow their traditions and culture, if someone is not comfortable removing their hijabs or turban they shouldn't be forced to do so. Threatening young girls on the pretext of education is illogical. Any law does not justify this action, and cannot. How can ...

It’s a historic breakthrough for scientists and researchers in the field of medicine to be able to transplant a pig’s heart into an adult human. Davit Bennett, a 57yrs old Maryland resident suffering from a life-threatening condition called Arrhythmia underwent a pig heart transplant in January 2022.  He had been hospitalized for weeks and was connected to a heart-lung bypass machine called extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to remain alive. He was deemed ineligible for an artificial heart pump due to his severe condition. The only choice left with the doctors of Maryland Medical center was to experiment with the pig's heart for Mr.Bennett to survive leading to a major breath through as Mr. Bennett after 3 days of transplant did not show any rejection to the pig’s heart. Transplantation of an animal’s heart is known as xenotransplantation which was previously performed in the 1980s on a newborn child named Stephanie Fae Beauclair who was born with a fatal heart condition. After a ...
