Ranchi: Due to the meaningful efforts of Chief Minister Hemant Soren the victims of human trafficking are being freed and rehabilitated in their homes. In this connection, three boys from the Ranchi district of the state and one girl from Gumla who were victims of human trafficking have been freed in Delhi.
Nodal Officer, Integrated Rehabilitation cum Resource Center, New Delhi Nachiketa said that all four children had come to Delhi at different times as victims of human trafficking. Delhi Police recovered three boys from the railway station and freed them and a girl from Gumla district was brought to Delhi by human trafficking. She was sold to do domestic work in a Kothi,where the girl child was made to work day and night was not even being given money. Ultimately being tired of physical torture the girl ran away from there.

All the districts have been given strict instructions by the Director of the Women and Child Development Department Chhavi Ranjan, that whichever district the child is rescued in Delhi, the District Social Welfare Officer and Child Protection Officer of that district will bring them back to their district and will be rehabilitated.

Taking prompt action by District Child Protection Officer Ved Prakash Tiwari and Durga Shankar action is being taken to rehabilitate the children back to their home district in Jharkhand. Children rescued in Delhi are being brought to Ranchi by train from New Delhi.
These children will be linked to various schemes run by the Social Welfare Department so that they do not become victims of human trafficking again.
