Combat human trafficking

As many as 300 children, more girls than boys, go missing every month in Nepal.

Last week, seven girls went missing from Bhangaha Municipality in Mahottari district. According to family members, the girls aged between 10-18 years old had gone to collect fodder in the nearby Ajgewa village at around 2 pm and had not returned home until 7 pm. The news rocked the village. The police were informed, following which the District Police Office mobilised its personnel; but the search for the missing girls throughout the night was all in vain.
