Earlier this month, 40 children were rescued from a Mumbai fish canning factory by a local NGO. All of the children, 36 girls and 4 boys, had been reportedly trafficked from Assam. Working for 14 hours a day at a stretch with no food, the children were paid around 7,000 rupees a month. Back home, the children have been in a state of shock since and have refused to speak up.
