MUMBAI : At a time when the entire nation is set to celebrate womanhood on Navratri, CNN-IBN’s flagship documentary show 30 Minutes puts the spotlight on thousands of minor girls from rural India who are trafficked into cities every year to work as domestic help. This weekend, CNN-IBN busts the racket of illegal placement agencies which thrive on this extremely abused and exploited class. In this hidden camera investigation, the traffickers and agents reveal how easily they operate illegally with no regulation in place. The show also features testimonies of some of these girls, who have been made to live as bonded labour for years.
