The Indians will just blame the British, as they usually do, for all of their problems and their failures, and under the current Modi regime they've made it hard for NGOs to operate mainly because it shames the Indians and shows the world how little the GOI is actually doing for it's own people! Caste was banned under Dr Ambedkar's excellent secular constitution in 1950, but as usual with the Indians they just ignore the laws that they don't like, and corruption plays its part too! It is what it is.

@@bishesh535 you must be Indian. Indians can’t stand being criticized for your system. Automatically compare it to other systems when it’s not about that. Even only fans, as horrible as it is, is still a “choice” for most people. These women in India don’t have a choice and for many it’s the ONLY one. That’s the difference. As she says, no one in her family had jobs and her sister “had” to get married. Why does her sister HAVE TO get married? Because of tradition and culture in this place. Fight for change in your own country and support women. Stop comparing to other countries and to justify the issues in your own. It’s not about other countries it’s about India.

But they (DW) won't talk about the issue in Europe because too many of the abusers and racists are immigrant Muslims while the victims are native European girls. Why are they (DW) ignoring the child sexual exploitation cases in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Norway, and Sweden, etc... hmmmm. The data clearly shows that immigrants are vastly overrepresented. This is why they won't investigate the problem. 89% of groomers in the Netherlands have an immigrant background, and 60% are Muslims, while most victims in the Netherlands are Dutch girls, not immigrant girls.

In India they came and preached about giving another cheek when slapped on one to produce a set of docile Indian Christian’s who will do majority opposition and try to increase their counts using conversion if they are not able to match it by creating babies?

Caste is PORTUGESE woed.white man is pushing this in india to balkanise it

[@deepanshu00730]

Caste system is abolished in India and no caste system exists in India. But it cannot be said about caste-based discrimination. But this is not a case of caste system or aftermath of Caste System. They were forced in prostitution due to poverty. There is not a single caste even in history whose members were considered as prostitutes or slaves. This channel has raised a good issue but they have not done the research properly.

Thank you DW for treating these women with kindness & dignity, which they absolutely deserve. Great video. To the people blamimg the women for their "choice"...the woman who said she "chose" to be a SW was also born into this, uneducated, so how much choice did she have? Hint: next to none. That's why that NGO and teacher are BREAKING the cycle and intervening before it repeats itself with their daughters. These women are also young and beautiful, even those in middle age still have so much life ahead of them and can accomplish new dreams! 😊 ✨ 💖 ✨ Despite the tough life they've endured, they're survivers and thrivers, and exude joy, wit, and kindness, plus hope. The woman at 9:27 is especially radiant from the inside out. Love the garment she is wearing, such a lovely blue. Many women in the west would pay big bucks for handmade garments like that and many of the women make their own clothes. They're already businesswomen so they could expand. Just a thought. Thank you DW! 🇮🇳🇮🇳

The women have such dignity about them despite their situation 😢

I am happy the man teached himself some important life skills and is educating the younger generation of women. I hope these families can break out of their poverty and this type of work as fast as possible The whole caste system and the British power in the past is absolutely infuriating!

[@adammorra3813]

This is disgusting, we need to create more jobs and opportunities for these young women so they can earn a living and live respectfully

When one of the women was telling how she was beaten by some shitter, it broke my heart. There was nobody to help her. It's just sad.

All these women look so beautiful and kind, and even innocent. It breaks my heart imagining what they have to go through everyday, may them be born into a better world in the next life if they cannot be happy in this life.
