On 21st march 2016 Guria rescued 57 bonded labours of chhattisgarh state from the district of maharajganj in uttar pradesh( from the Indo-Nepal border).Since the labour department did not cooperate, the district magistrate was kind enough to take the matter into his own hands and get the statements recorded in his supervision. ‪#‎ humanrights‬   ‪#‎ humantrafficking‬   ‪#‎ slavery‬   ‪#‎ freedomnow‬   ‪#‎ Guria‬   ‪#‎ justice‬ ‪#‎ bondedlabour‬   ‪#‎ forcedlabour‬   ‪#‎ rescue‬

Guria Center welcomes Holi, the Festival of Colors and Spring! The Center kids enjoyed a fun afternoon of running around and throwing vibrant colored powder. 

We're happy to share that on March 14th, Guria was awarded the "Nari Shakti" Award by the honorable President of India, and later in the evening, the Prime Minister of India invited Ajeet Singh over for tea and discussion. Ajeet shared about Guria's work and invited the Prime Minister to visit the children center in the Red Light Area of Varanasi. ‪#‎ humanrights‬   ‪#‎ humantrafficking‬   ‪#‎ slavery‬   ‪#‎ freedomnow‬   ‪#‎ Guria‬   ‪#‎ justice‬ ‪#‎ rape‬   ‪#‎ sextrafficking‬   ‪#‎ sexslavery‬   ‪#‎ childprostitution‬ ‪#‎ commercialsexualexploitation‬   ‪#‎ bondedlabour‬   ‪#‎ forcedlabour‬   ‪#‎ rescue‬
