PIL Success!

Following Guria’s latest Public Interest Litigation, the High Court issued a notice PERSONALLY to the Principal Secretary of Uttar Pradesh, asking him to file an affidavit explaining whether or not a victim compensation fund had been created!

Guria had presented findings before the court that in all districts of Uttar Pradesh, NO victims of human trafficking are receiving ANY compensation… even though Rule 7 of the POCSO act says that a compensation fund MUST be created and dispersed to victims of human trafficking!

We are one step closer to getting trafficking laws to actually be enforced.
