However even in the midst of a terrible pandemic our work fighting child trafficking goes on.
We gave seen a big increase in child trafficking during the pandemic.
Please take a look at this CNN video ..many of these children come to us from Jaipur and the video shows the scale of the problem.

But we have had many successes including working in partnership with other organisations and law enforcement to bring factory owners to book and with child support programmes in the villages to restore mainstream education.
Your support is crucial to us and we all send our hearfelt thanks and appreciation to you.
Our brave staff are working 24/7 to help children caught up in the pandemic and trafficking by criminals and everybody here thanks you for your help.
Our next update will include stories from some of the children themselves..
With thanks
Priyadarshini
