Hello Everyone
My name is Mr Singh.
I am one of the workers here at Rescue Junction.
I send my greeting to you.
For example here are two stories from children who have come to Rescue Junction just in the last week only.
Rithik 11 years old- A cruel stepmother
Rithik’s father remarried and moved away from his home village. His new stepmother regularly beat him for the crime of trying to go to school instead of doing housework. Unable to bear the constant abuse he ran away and was spotted on the station by a member of our staff alone and crying. He was bought to the protective care of the Junction where our case workers are considering the best options for him.
Ajit 12 years old – working his childhood away at 18 hours a day
An orphan Ajit a street child was captured by chid traffickers who sold him to a factory owner where he was made to work from 6am to 11am every single day except Sunday for which he was never paid he got only basic food. He tried to run away and was beaten, after which he was chained to his bed at night. He managed to use a co- worker’s phone and phoned the toll free childline number which he had seen in a discarded newspaper at the factory. As a resukt of his call within 48 hours over 50 children were rescued from the factory in a police raid and the owners are in custody.
Please help us continue our important work, and we thank you for your support We have changed the names of these children according to our best practices protocol.
