It is an industry that generates billions of dollars in profits every year and has devastating consequences for the victims who are exploited and abused. like many other countries, faces significant challenges in combating trafficking. The government has taken several steps to address the issue, including enacting plethora of laws to deal with menace. The Constitution of India “prohibits traffic in human begins and forced labour”. However, despite these efforts, trafficking of women remains a significant problem in India. This paper will discuss various legislations that address the issue of trafficking of women in India. Further, an attempt would to be made to analysis the primary legislation that deals trafficking of women. The paper argues that the main legislation is enacted from the crime-based approach, which focuses more on criminalization of trafficking and prosecution rather protection of the victims. The crime-based approach can often result in the re-victimization of trafficking survivors, who may be treated as criminals or illegal migrants rather than as victims of exploitation. Hence, there is a need for a victim-centric legislation to combat
changing dimensions of trafficking of women in India.
