Title

Practice of Child Prostitution in India

Abstract

I learned about the Devadasis system, a custom that is widely practiced in several Indian regions. In this ritual, a young girl is wedded to a temple god and sexually exploited for the delight of priests and other clients. The practice is referred to as "Child Prostitution." The practice is prevalent, infecting a huge portion of India's population. Various communities carry out the practice as a family vocation in different regions of tribal India. Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi are major prostitute hotspots. The wicked stigmatizes both boys and girls. The behavior is motivated by unequal distribution of power and money, as well as other socioeconomic issues such as poverty and unemployment. Diseases such as Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), unplanned pregnancies, and psychiatric problems are transmitted as a result of this behavior. Articles 5 and 8 of the Immoral Traffic Prevention Act, 1953, as well as sections 373 and 374 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, determine the legal position of prostitution. This action must be stopped immediately. But only after taking a peek at the other side of the coin. Sex workers are being attacked, brothels are being searched, sex workers and their tiny children are being left alone, and citizenship is being denied to such individuals in the name of law. They are being denied the right to live a dignified life. Furthermore, India's present judicial system and public resources are insufficient to rehabilitate such a huge population. It is necessary to decriminalize prostitution. Currently, the government should focus on slowing down the regulation and administration of health, sanitation, and improving people's socioeconomic situations. This will undoubtedly result in the slow and peaceful eradication of evil from the country in the long term
