Panellists on Tuesday discussed how the glaring gap between rescue and prosecution is a major hurdle in effectively tackling crimes against children. They said child victims often fell through these gaps into child labour, trafficking, child marriage, and abuse.
The discussion took centre stage at the State-level consultation ‘Human Trafficking in India: Strengthening Convergence and Prevention Mechanisms’, held in Chennai. It was organised by Just Rights for Children in collaboration with the Department of Children Welfare and Special Services.
