Building a Wider
Horizon With Labour
Four bonded labourers, including three minors, have been rescued from a vegetable farm in Hoskote. The labourers — now aged between 14 and 25 - were forced to work in the farm after being trafficked by the owner and his five children. Three of the rescued are from Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu, while another is from Ramanagaram. Inquiries have revealed that they were aged between nine and 15 when they were forced to work in the farm, said the International Justice Mission (IJM), an NGO that assisted in the rescue.
