"The main concern of the National Human Rights Commission in commissioning this study was to check the disturbing trend in the reported alarming rise in trafficking. Press, police and NGO reports on trafficking had given a clear and unequivocal indication that buying and selling of women and children for sexual and non-sexual purposes was an expanding activity and involved gross violation of human rights. What was even more worrisome was the indication that India was fast becoming a source, transit point as well as a destination area for traffickers."
