Sex
Workers Tie Rakhis to Policemen in Gujarat
One
of the most difficult issues faced by the Commercial Sex Workers
has been the harassment and the insensitive behavior on part of
the police personnel. On the day of ‘Rakshabandhan’
about 150 CSW’s of ‘Sakhijyot’ - a CSW co-operative
visited 29 stations and tied rakhis to more than 400 police personnel.
The police force claiming that a lot of them unaware of the problems
faced by commercial sex workers are now committed to increased cooperation
and sensitivity towards them.
