Generations pay off debts through slavery

Uttar Pradesh, India - An army of workers, their faces encrusted with dust, toils beside a story-high pile of unfired bricks. They are helping build a new India that appears to be leaving them behind.

From sunup to sundown they spend their time pouring wet mud into molds, lugging them to the kiln, firing them and then pulling them out. For their backbreaking work, they do not receive wages.

They are working to pay off a debt.

In India they are known as bonded laborers, bound to those who gave them or their forefathers an advance or a loan. Human rights advocates call them modern day slaves.

"I cannot leave here unless I pay my debt," said Durgawati, a mother of three.

A contractor had approached Durgawati and her husband, offering them work in a far-off village. He had said there were plenty of opportunities and offered to pay an advance to prove it. Desperate to make a living and with no work in sight where they lived, they leapt at the chance and took the 1000-rupee ($22) advance, she said.

The contractor found them work, but now, the family said they were trapped.

"I have to make a thousand bricks per day," Durgawati said. "It's the most difficult thing. We are given big pieces of soil, then we have to break it. Then we make it into a dough. Then we knead the soil."

Durgawati and her family stand before piles of bricks, with their brick homes behind.

She and her husband aren't the only ones in the family working. Their eldest daughter is nearly as fast as the adults at molding the earth into bricks. She is just five years old.

The family said they have not received wages since arriving three months ago. None of them has any idea how much they are owed. They said they have never been shown a balance sheet and couldn't read it anyway. They are illiterate and desperate to make a living.

They do get a small food allowance but say it barely feeds them. Still, the family wouldn't dare leave the worksite that doubles as their living quarters.

"They will beat me if I try to leave," Durgawati said.

Dozens of families are in the same predicament. They are all oblivious to the fact that bonded labor is illegal in India. The legislation has been in place for decades, but enforcement is lax.

"They have to work and repay the loan. They keep working," said Arun Singh, their supervisor. "We have an agreement."

Workers hand bricks to another at a kiln in Uttar Pradesh, India.

He acknowledged that children are also working on the site, which would be a breach of India's child labor laws, even though he insists otherwise.

"Kids are working here for food. They need food. If they can't fill their stomachs, they need to work," Singh said.

Singh also asked CNN to pay for the interview. "Madam I charge, you pay me something," he said to no avail.

In another village, people have lived in bonded labor for generations.

"They remain in slavery forever," said Supriya Awasthi, South Asia director of Free the Slaves, a non-governmental organization dedicated to eradicating slavery around the world. "There are 27 million people around the world who are in slavery, and [the] maximum…live in India," she said.

According to estimates by policymakers, activists and scholars, the number of modern day slaves ranges from about 10 million to 30 million.

In the village of Dhomanpur a woman applied turmeric paste on the swollen foot of her husband, who said he had injured it when trying to get a cow off a truck for the landowner he works for.

"Even when I'm hurt or sick they call me to work. You won't believe how many atrocities I have to go through in a day," said Kharban Gagai, his leg hanging over his rope bed. The couple lives in a mud hut in a village owned by the landowner.

"When my father was alive he took an 8000-rupee ($175) loan from the landowner. Since that time I am having to work day and night for him," Gagai said, adding that he has never been paid.

His father's debt changed his life. No matter who in the family borrowed money, that debt became his debt, Gagai said.

Before his work injury, Gagai said he tried to escape several times but was always found and brought back.

There are no physical signs the villagers are living in bondage: no chains, fences or armed guards, but the villagers say they are all slaves just the same.

"If I don't work, they will beat me. They will abuse my daughter," said Lalti, a mother of seven. "If you don't give in, they will sell your daughter or son."

Lalti said she had to borrow money from the landowner to treat her husband's tuberculosis years ago, and now she can't come and go as she pleases.

"I am an illiterate, so how would I know how much we owe, and what's left to pay? I don't even know how much we had taken. It's been many years."

As payment for work, she and her neighbors receive leftover food or bags of grain, Lalti said. They are beholden to the man who owns the land they live on.

None of them had heard of the Indian law that made bonded labor illegal more than 30 years ago.

"People in modern day slavery have no idea they can ever access any kind of rights," said Awasthi of Free the Slaves.

Lalti hopes she is able to work long enough so her children will be freed from the loan that binds her family to the land and a hard life.

"The day I pay my debt I will be free. We'll be prosperous," Lalti said.

        Yeah, you have a lot of nerve comparing your situation to that of those poor people,, Your loan was an investment in your future. You'll pay it off and enjoy a lucrative career with a lot of prestige. If you are a slave to anything, its to your own ambitions.

        The largest check I write each month other than rent is to student loan. Student loan bases payments on gross salary, ignoring taxes, rent or groceries. I have to watch every penny and have no savings.

        It's worse for US soldiers; the federal govt takes their debts straight out of salary, which is why so many are homeless; you could get a 2000 pension but end up with 200 once the govt takes soldier's debt out.

        Yeah, you may be educated but you are a moron. You can choose to stop working - you would go bankrupt. They might take some of your toys, but they will not beat you. They will not put you in jail. They will not rape your daughter, nor force your 5 year old child to work just to have any sort of food to eat.

        You are not a slave, just an obnoxious person who cannot imagine what slavery is actually like.

      • Edwin

        Obi, you may pay a lot in student loans, but you are not forced to work. No one will beat you if you stop working. And the veterans may have it bad, but they actually GET money from their paycheck. Some people actually take home less than nothing - they OWE money to their employer each month they work, because of mandatory benefits.

        In Wisconsin, Walker's new budget would do that to graduate students - they would earn less than they owe in benefits (forget worrying about rent - there is literally nothing left for food or housing or anything else). Yet they are still not slaves - they can drop out of school.

        Edwin is a liar. I'm a Wisconsin graduate student, and it is NOT in Gov. Walker's bill to "do that to graduate students". The only ones mentioning getting rid of tuition remission – which is the only way "this" could be done, are the pro-union people spreading deliberate misinformation (i.e., a fancy way of saying LIES). In fact, the only way Walker's bill would directly affect me is that I'll pay double for health insurance... still less than $50/month for one of the country's cushiest HMO plans. Not bad when my parents pay $1000/month for a much much worse insurance plan. In fact, I've got plenty of money left for food, housing, weekend hobbies, a bit of travel, and even some left over for the bank. Plus, I've got a guaranteed job for the next few years. I'm not dropping out of school any time soon!

        You can dislike the way Doc Savage said it, but there is an absolute truth to this. One of the biggest problems with poverty and welfare is the poorest and least capable are the ones that have the most children. 7 children when you have to work to pay off debt (not that anyone should be bonded by others debt) is not smart, literate or not. The same goes for people in this country that are too poor to pay for their own health care(medicaid) or food (food stamp recipients) and yet many have 5+ children. You don't need to read to know how children are born, and you dont need to be highly educated to know about condoms. Those of you that don't realize over population is the biggest threat to economic sustainability as well as the environment are living in a dream world.

        @ Mike – Does it sound or look like condoms are readily available – I see no citgo gas station? Plus, some are enslaved over $22, do you think they can afford birth control? As a matter of a fact birth control is probably illegal in this slave unit, the more children a person has the more free work the land owner gets. Also, in every article about slavery the word rape is associated. Children and women are sold and sexually abused. I wonder how many of the 7 children were produced by the land owner. Greedy people taking advantage of the uneducated and poor. As in America, the worst schools in the lowest income, the wealthy need to keep us stupid, to indebt us, to control us.

        He might not be literate but his point is sound. The biggest problem with the planet today is that there is no true natural selection. Humans are no longer genetically progressing and this is an example. I would never bring a child into this world unless I had the means to take care of it. Call it common sense, education, unnatural selection...If you look at the United States you see huge separation of education levels. Is this because the education is not available? No, it is the individuals lack of desire to educate themselves.

        Death is a part of life. We obviously have too much birth and not enough death.

We are obviously not the most intelligent either.

      • OCTrojan

        Doc Savage,

        Your comments are misinformed in many respects:
        1. Poor families in 3rd world countries have very high child mortality rates – you have many children because you're lucky if 1/3 survive to adulthood. Give birth 10x to see 3 or 4 turn 16.
        2. In agrarian cultures families rely on their offspring to work the farms. American farmers routinely have 4-6 kids to work the farm, and no differently, in a harsh environment like India, having 7 kids survive childhood would increase the number of incoming producing family members.
        3. Birth control? No such thing. The impoverished to not have access to birth control – imagine how many kids Americans would have "accidentally" without brith control? You make abstinence sound so easy, but the reality is that the ONLY reason Westerners control their birth rate is through birth control NOT abstinence. India would love to control unwanted pregnancies, but who is going to pay for this? As you can see, they are struggling just to find food, and education is unavailable, but yet, you expect them to have a few condoms handy? Please.

        It is easy to judge, but please review the circumstances and compare their reality to yours and you will see that the decision to have 7 kids is less "choice" and more circumstance based out of necessity and in many instances, lack of education and resources.

        March 8, 2011 at 11:23 am |
      • Immortal

        Americans do not need to have 7 kids to work on farms anymore. How has having kids helped this family? The best birth control is not having sex and it is free! Mike said this best. In its current state, the only thing holding back anyone on this planet is themselves. If you think otherwise you are a bleeding heart.

        These people need Jesus more than any can imagine. It is through Him they will find true and real freedom. They are illiterate and unable to move forward. Their lives are an analogy of the human condition; enslaved by sin and bound by it to death..even though Jesus has paid the penalty. However, what use to them is their physical freedom if they don't have spiritual salvation. But, we must set them free physically and teach them the truth. Oh, that we could change this situation, but Jesus can.

        In a patriarchal society in which women are frequently beaten over minor incidents, do you really think a woman can say no to having sex with her husband? Stop putting Western laws and morals on these people. Rape is a weapon used against these women, do you think a rapist will use a condom? The point of the article is to raise awareness that whole families are enslaved to satisfy a debt and because these people are desperate, they work.

        You may want to compare this to the US in which those who can least afford to have children have them anyway. Ok, so write your Congressman and say you want the government to promote family planning in all its forms.

        @Immortal – Better a bleeding heart than none at all. It sounds like you believe that everywhere in the world has the same opportunities as where you live. This is clearly untrue. Have you ever considered all the bleeding heart Socialist institutions to which you owe your opportunities? I assume that where you are there is offered a basic education for little or no cost and that there are libraries available where you may seek out even more information. In many places these basics are not available, not to mention that in India specifically, there is a caste system that prevents (at least socially as it is technically illegal) many from having any chance to better themselves regardless of personal drive. I think that before you make a blanket judgment, you might do well to check the validity of all of your assumptions. Perhaps a nice logic study would be beneficial. You can find a lot of quality texts on the subject at your local library. Have a wonderful day.

        Many of these people are illiterate and don't have any semblance of an education. The popular belief in India is that if you are poor you should have more kids so that there are more people to send out to work and hence more income. They did not have children because of a lack of planning or ignorance. They are victims by birth nothing else.

        Being poor does not mean you don't have the right to love and be loved by having children. We in the West ascribe materialism to happiness. I have travelled to poorer parts of the world, and surprised at how happ-IER people there were.

        The truth is that these places exist because of the governments ruling these contries. We Americans should boycot countries that allow this to go on. The truth is that everyone posting comments, including myself do not have the baseballs to do something about it. We are only concern about places like Lybia that produce oil. In these places our government will consider no fly zones and other reprocussions to stop attrocities. If this bothers anyone, please right to your president, senators, and congressmen. Let them know that this is more important than some of the other bull crape they have been spending our treasure, sons and daughters lives. stop sending dollas and business to these places and see if they won't react. That should get their attention.

      • Atheos

        @Immortal – Your assertion that each family's plight is their own is easily dismissed by the fact that many inherit a bonded position. As an ascribed status, slavery can only be seen as a matter of free choice among the persistently stupid or depraved. What is more, you mention social structure, but seem to hold little understanding of how well-known elements of community organization shape the decisions and choices of individuals: placed at the bottom of India's hierarchy, and with few other options save for starvation or prostitution, the "choice" to bond oneself can scarcely be regarded as such. You claim education, but one struggles to find any evidence of exposure to higher learning beyond Kindergarten in your arguments.

        They didn't "decide" to get pregnant. It's people like you who are unable to understand things in context that are at the root of many of the world's problems. Marie Antoinette wasn't being cruel when she said "let them eat cake". She was being ignorant. She honestly thought cake was an option because *she* had plenty of cake.

        Like Marie Antoinette, you can't grasp a world that isn't like the tiny one that surrounds you. But, when informed that the rest of the world isn't like your own, instead of having "a-ha" moments, you try to rationalize your mean-spiritedness. You choose to lay blame on people for whom your brand of "common sense" is something they have never been exposed to.

        You carefully neglect to remember back when *you* didn't know everything. You "forget" how vastly different things were even a decade ago. Instead, you prefer to take a holier-than-thou approach and look down your nose at people who haven't had your advantages.

        Shame on you.

        Welcome to the third world my friend. Science does know what causes pregnancy but the vicious cycle of poverty and childbirth are ancient in the third world. Contrary to what you may believe about the literacy regarding prevention or availability of the tools of the trade, illiteracy is rampant and many of the villagers have no access to sources of information or other contraceptives. Unfortunately, this is going to take several more decades to bring under control in India.

        @Mike, same questions and where do they get said condoms? Do you even know if they are aware of condoms? Even so, consider the land owner. He almost certainly is going to demand that they have children. If they don't, he's likely to find someone to father the children (i.e., rape the mother). Why are you acting like these people actually are making a choice?

        @ Immortal – I have no reason to doubt you on your education level. I do however have reason to doubt your knowledge of India based on your comments. In many cases, they DO NOT have a choice but to in-debt themselves for a $22 loan. Thousand rupees could save the life of a dying child in the government hospital. When you live in the villages of India and you don't have a tenth of that money in your hut, better to take the loan and be a slave to save your child than otherwise. It's not like she went and bought an iPod with the money...

        @Athos: Resolving to personal attacks shows weakness of mind. Your other points were valid up to that point. The fact that the lady took the loan and is now working it off, is by definition not slavery. So you are saying I am a slave to a credit card company because I maxed out my mastercard? In some sense of the word maybe. The term slavery implies FORCED labor. She was not forced into labor, she made a decision and now she is paying that decision back. It is most definitely unfair. The same could be argued about my credit card interest. If I murder and am forced into lockup am I then a slave, or am I paying back my actions? Our decisions have consequences, educated or not.

        They have no access to health care or birth control. How are they supposed to not get pregnant? I suppose they should just abstain for their entire life for fear of getting pregnant? Is that how you would live? You people really need to think about things before you post.

        @Immortal – The problem with your example is that the act of murder, I believe, implies some measure of intent on the part of the murderer. Intent further implies that the murderer–if he is indeed to be called a murderer–held at the time of the crime a reasonable understanding of the consequences of his actions. The victims of usury so described in the article, however, appear to hold scant understanding of what kind of contract they are entering in to–that they will be bound for generations, that their children will be forced into prostitution, and they will likely never escape their debt. What is more, some element of malice should be present in order for "murder" to occur, a disposition I can safely assume is largely absent in the unequal contract entered into by both parties in India. Call me cynical, but I doubt that the victims of usury in India are told up front of these conditions. The same applies to your credit card example: when signing a credit contract–for short-term loans, cars, mortgages–you are presented with clear and unmistakable terms (for instance, 4.95% credit over a period of six years).

        The problem with your example is that the act of murder, according to law, implies some measure of intent on the part of the murderer. Intent further implies that the murderer–if he is indeed to be called a murderer–held at the time of the crime a reasonable understanding of the consequences of his actions. The victims of usury so described in the article, however, appear to hold scant understanding of what kind of contract they are entering in to–that they will be bound for generations, that their children will be forced into prostitution, that they will likely never escape their debt, and that disobeying those to whom they are indebted will likely yield violence. To say that they should go ahead and learn these things prior to the contract (and I use the term "contract" loosely here) implies the type of widespread literary and social equality simply not present in India (and call me cynical, but I doubt these people are told up front about theses things). What is more, some element of malice should be present in order for "murder" to occur. I doubt the poor people described in the article held anything even closely resembling malice in their decision to become slaves. The same applies to your credit card example: when signing a credit contract–for short-term loans, cars, mortgages–you are presented up front with clear and unmistakable terms (for instance, 4.95% credit over a period of six years).
        Incidentally, whether we call it "slavery" or something else makes little difference, for the results are largely the same: upon threat of violence, the people described above are bound geographically, financially, and politically without hope of legal recourse, and they cannot escape the effects of this bondage even through birth. Sounds a lot like slavery to me. We can go ahead and wrestle with problem semantically–calling it this or that, slavery or something else–but whatever the outcome the fact remains that the practice is fundamentally wrong and cannot be justified.

        Well, i've actually met these kind of people. The main reason these people have so many children is because they think of them as investments. The more children you have, the more they can work and bring home money. Of course, they don't think of the expenses of looking after the children and providing for their welfare. After all, they are illiterate; the idea of maintaining a budget is beyond their ability. Also, in rural areas like these, people are not fully aware of methods of safe sex.

Even though, logically speaking it is in front of our faces. Compare the salary of a U.S. citizen to that of an Indian or China worker...Where a U.S. company does not have to follow a U.S. minium wage law, this alone could be considered slavery by U.S. laws.

      And btw, illiteracy is not an excuse, they have obviously lost their will, illiterate people can count cant they? My grandmother was illiterate actually both, they can count. So what's the problem? You cant draw lines in the mud? ///////// that makes 10, so there is no excuse you dont know how long you worked and how much you owe. Maybe it is low IQ or something because any normal person can count and if you have the will, there is always a way.

        It's not so simple. Surely, these people can count. But, most probably, they would have been made to sign an agreement under duress which would have applied an exorbitant rate of interest (E.g, 35-50%) on the loan. So, once they putt their thumb's impression on this agreemnt for whatever reason (illiteracy/stupidity/urgent need of money/under duress), it's quite tough for them to pay it back – more so because the wages will also be defind by the loan giver. So, its quite a hopeless situation for these bonded labourers. Education is their best bet, I guess!

        You cannot make an assumption that these individuals have been exposed to the same levels of education and support that you have (or any other "normal" person, whatever that means.) Normal is relative. Children are often raised in these environments and spend their days making bricks, not learning about letters and numbers. I can't make an assumption that you have had educational opportunities or a family that was able to nurture your growth, but the fact that you are here and can form sentences means that you probably have, to some degree. You can't assume the same of these people. Your world (and mine) is not like theirs. All the will they can muster may not be enough to fight the corruption of governments and the fear that their "owners" instill in them.

      What social life does a whole family working in a brick factory have? At least the software worker has the option of going to work in a cosy brick factory if they wanted. Can a brick factory worker quit and go work in a software company? I'd like to know why software workers aren't lining up to do back breaking work in a brick factory .. their whole family included .. nevermind no chance to send ones kids to school .. so that means even the kids cant break out of the cycle.

        I will ahve to agree with you Jay.

        White collared Indians in US, I agree are perhaps not treated fairly but that forms the basis of immigration. I am not justifying it, but to compare them to labourers living below poverty line is a bit outrageous. These so called 'Indian Slaves' in the US live there to afford holidays in Miami and Peurto rico, wear the newest in fashion and open fat NRI accounts. And I am saying that becos most of my freinds and family are these'so called slaves', and I am the same, albeit in UK. And to think that only Indians work 18 hours a day in US, Satish probably needs to speak to some of Amercian counterparts and Indian counterparts. My aunties and uncles who work in India, in Gurgoan works just as long as hours s their american collegues in the US. And for fat pay packets.

        I would recommend Satish to perhaps resign from whatever he does and try out labouring for no money for a week, perhaps he may rewrite the article then.

      Ridiculous,
      Its not slavery its a decision to enter into long term, penalty driven contract for a clear financial reward. Im Indian in the US. I love it here but sometimes I get frustrated I dont have the freedom to travel where I want when I want. If you consider this slavery then you would say the same for ROTC, military service, service for the state department, even going to med school. You effectively make a decision and then you dont have any choices for a period of years.

      Please consider the plight of the people in this article. Its serious and your comments are making light of poor people while you lead a comfortable life.

        I'm slightly confused by your comments. In America, we do choose, in some cases to enslave ourselves for the hopes of a better life after a few years of sacrafice. From the articles I've been reading, especially this one, people are born into debt, never having the choice! To take over a family members debt, which is illegal but not enforced...There is no recourse for these people...And at the end of the day, they likely thank the land owners and boss for the scraps of food they receive. As always, Greed rules and people find ways to defend it.

        If they did not borrow the money then it is not their problem. If they borrowed the money, they should know how to draw lines on paper or in the mud and know how much they owe and how long they have been working, you do not need to be literate to know how to count lines. So if people are not stupid, they should know how long they need to work to pay what they owe off. Now no one can help them if they are dumb, because those sort of people exist everywhere and people get duped no matter where they are, could be US could be India. There is no cure for lack of intelligence.

        Jay Daniel, you are quite naive I think. Do you really think that it's possible for these workers to actually sit down with the landowners (slaveowners really, let's call them what they are) and add up the numbers together to determine how long they need to work to pay off the debt? Get real! Such a discussion would probably never happen to begin with, and even if it did the slaveowner would quote some exhorbitant interest rate or invent a required "balloon payment" as the reason for the debt not being paid yet. Surely you don't expect that an illiterate person will understand compound interest and other such complex loan terms?

        The failure here is that there is no effectively operating justice system to police these slumlords and slaveowners. They know they can get away with it and they care nothing for these poeple (whom they probably see as "sub-human" given their low caste), so the cycle continues indefinitely because there's no one there to stop it. For you to blame the victim here is completely unreasonable, ignorant and just plain cruel.

      While I appreciate CNN for reporting this cruelty and agree with Satish and couple of others, I think slavery is abundant in the US. The slavery to mortgage companies where you lose everything including your credit history, slavery to the education system which has more interest in resolving creationism rather than science, slavery to religion where one cannot use the word 'God' nor pary in school, slavery to holidays where 'Xmas' is referred by 'Holiday' etc. Nations are great, it is the human greed that is the issue...

        These bonded labors are being cheated, the mortgage company is not cheating yuo. You agreed to those terms knowingly.

      @ TPap – Really? The world hasn't progressed since ancient times? I take it you just posted that comment on a typewriter instead of a pc, right? Everybody's a slave no matter how great our lives look? LOL – Are you serious? Separating reality from your philosophical babble, let's consider a couple things. Although I'm certain the situation you're describing is more or less the idea of "mental slavery," it doesn't even register on the same scale as physical slavery. It's like saying you received emotional abuse as opposed to sexual abuse.

      The difference comes in with the fact that these people and other slaves in the past are literally FORCED to do this hard labor. It's mental AND physical slavery. They wake up every morning without the hope of retiring in a beach house some day. Every single day, they are told that they are less than human and are looked upon with contempt while they are forced to do back-breaking work.

      When's the last time your boss came to your little air conditioned office and told you to build their new building for 19 hrs/day on a bread and water diet for an indefinite period or face the crack of a whip? Oh, and by the way, bring your 5 yr old with you. Pick up a book and read before you make such ignorant and unrealistic comments.

      And for the rest of you that think you know the plight of these people, I have news for you. You don't! None of us do! I emplore you to take a look back on the history of the world. This wonderful, beautiful country of the US was built much the same way as India is being built now! On the backs of African slaves, Chinese railroad workers, the blood of Native Americans and a whole host of other slaves and sub-par salary workers. So yes; you should learn from the past and do what you can to aid in humanitarian projects such as this. At the rate they're going, they'll be the next superpower in less than a decade!

        Let me ask you something, especially after criticizing the indian people. Who started slavery? Oh let me guess it was the white man, he came during the colonial era and started making slaves of everyone. And they still haven't quit they make people there slaves in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, and many other poor countries by installing dictatorships, by starting wars in the name of democracy when it is purely just for their own benefit, they blame other people about what they do but they never look at what they have done. Now think carefully before criticizing other people. It wasn't the asians the afgans or anyone else who in the name of democracy created terrorists and dictators and then left the people as slaves in their hands.

        History reminds us that slavery is part and parcel of the greedy and callous nature of mankind rather than something unique to the white, black, brown, or yellow man. Slavery has a very deep reach in the history of man and as said the issue is not who started slavery (we are all capable of recreating slavery in our own way today, though we may polish it off and make it sound and look nice) but what we can and are willing to do today to stop it.

I'm thrilled they're shedding light on this global problem. If no one did, we would continue being ignorant to the injustice that happens all over the world and right under our noses.

    What a wonder in India! at one side we have a guy living in a USD 2 billion house and on the other side we have a family bonded as slaves for mere Rupees1000! My opinion, Biil & Melinda Gates Foundation should just sent someone over to India to bail them out once . If they blow the chance then we need not feel guilty for not doing anything. Looks like many of Indian billionaires are busy doing pilgrimage to reach heaven!

    I think people are getting confused between Slavery and Bonded labour. The article explains how bonded labour exists in India. Bonded labour exists every where, its very common to sign an agreement for the work to be done and the benifits you get. The problem in this case is, the poor guys are illiterate and they dont know when to close the agreement. I dont think Slavery still exists in India. The term Slavery we use when there is human trade, people are sold. But we see Sex Slavery in many countries including India.

      it has nothing to do with illiteracy and everything to do with a corrupt government that accepts bribery from these powefrul and cruel landlords. the tenants can't escape slavery as the government supports it.

    I dont know how these cnn persons gets fake news which even indian TV channels and indians dont know...it is true that slavery existed in india in this form as printed here but it long time back everybody in india knew it under the british rule...but maximun 20-25 years after independence these kinds of things were completely abolished...and these things become a common story of bollywood films for a long period of time and these cnn people from america must have watched the movie and get an aberant idea....cnn shud be responsible in printing such fake news...no person will say such a thing as the supervisor says to the cnn group like'"They have to work and repay the loan. They keep working," said Arun Singh, their supervisor. "We have an agreement." if any body says these things he shud have landed in jail...unless he is paid to make story and unless it is a paid newsjust to fill coloums in newspaper ...if it have been true ,i challenge that cnn group to go to police and report this matter they will truly be justified....

    It is the same in Maldives where Indians, Sri Lankans, Bangladeshis and Philippinos who work in the hospitality and other industries here under the guest worker program are required to work long hours with no days off. Employers house them in dormitory accommodations without privacy, provide them with limited amounts of food, with-hold their passports and deny them opportunity to leave before their contracts end. Did I also mention that the pay was minimal – for example, resorts here charge more than USD 400 per night per room and pay workers less than USD 200 per month for 30 days work at 12 hours per day.

    This is not due to poor education or awareness or due to India being a developing nation.

    There are some people who are simply evil in India. They will maim children to make Rs. 10 per day in begging versus Rs. 8 per day for a normal healthy beggar. They will rape at the slightest chance of not getting caught. They will pelt stones as no one can be arrested. It is about having a sick mindset without honour, self-discipline and duty. There is anarchy in India whether you and I like it.

    This is NOT fake news. This is something the middle class and richer Indians dont like to hear or read about. However, it is true and I have seen it personally. Come and live in a village in India, you will see the reality. 99% of Indians are corrupt or corruptible. The price has to be right.

India still fighting hard it hard to take care of her people. Being an Indian and a Hindu it is our responsibility to stop all these things. From the part of the Government they are trying to stop these things and changes are happening. India is not the same county of 20years back, but still more things have to be done. We didn't have anything left after the independence because we were looted by west for many hundred years. Each country has its own problem. Weather it is west or middle east or Africa. By this Forum let us tell the greedy people of our planet that the poor and the helpless have to be cared. For that let us all play our part irrespective of our color for this goof cause.

    1. Slavery and bounded labour in India is a reality, there are scores(most often poor and women) who are exposed to such environments. But, this number is coming down, slavery was a bigger problem 30years back than it is now. The way to fight it is not to directly eradicate the culprit and free the enslaved, but through education reforms and bringing masses into mainstream economy. India has done lot in the past 20 years to fight anti-seculars and feudals, though it may take another 20 for it to be comparable to western nations.

    2. I live in Europe, and post 9/11 christian-muslim internal conflict in these countries is in-comparable. Secularism in India these days would make most modern western societies bite off their fingers.

    3. Americans are seen as liberators of human rights only in America, the rest of world disagrees. The double standards held by americans are quite obvious in conflicts in AfPak and IRaq. Where well educated generals call of artillary fire and drone attacks on villages killing scores at a time. So this article is guided towards American audiences. Indians would quite disagree to such disparity and the Arabs-Paks and Chinese would openly spit upon the Americans for mere display of such disparity.

Fast forward, some countries still have it.....till they will turn the tide and move to more developed economies with cheap credit where even a commom may can improve their way of life.

    Not one civilization has been able to maintain superiority over time....Today it is America tomorrow it will be someone else.

    Wonder why it is always bad when other countries do it.

    American and most western countries always take pleasure in pointing out the bad in outer countries while doing a very good job of hiding their flaws (Black Slavery, Voilence using Nukes, Poverty in most mid west states and Indian Reservations).

    American live in gated colonies, using plastic cards in malls thinking that they are the most complete people on the planet.

    In a few decades, you will see a generation arise....like in Middle East where young people are waking up and saying "why not me"....I see American kids screwing around and snuffing coke...why should they have all the fun.

The article shows you so many things about the human condition, but ultimately it shows you how intimidation –physical violence- is used with absolute impunity, in countries where there are so many horrors that they seem to not care or are exhausted, they have no empathy left.
    One thing that many readers ignore –they are not to blame for it- is that when people is deprived from a good nutrition in the early childhood, the brain doesn’t develop to the fullest, therefore dragging FOR LIFE a tare that subjects them to all kind of scams and even creates the stereotype of them being naturally unable to perform. They become mentally weak and they are overpowered with even the simplest mental challenge. And faster than light, the vultures who notice that awful reality take advantage. And that happens always where poverty resides everywhere in the world.

    Such situations are tragic for the individuals and for society at large. Slavery has indeed been outlawed in India and elsewhere, but it has not been eliminated. its elimination requires legal enforcement and public involvement.For instance not purchasing bricks manufactured by slave labour and even small firms can do this. It is not limited to the poor india– sex trade , clandestine workshops for illegal immigrants in europe, north america and asia.
    However this is not a reason to forego condemning vociferously any such situation that we come across and finding a way to eliminate it....
    But how, electoral pressure where it happens and more big stories on it to awaken our sleepy and lethargic moral idignation. What NGOs are involved in it? Can we pay off their debts and free them???

    This sure is slavery, but it's not institutional slavery nor a legalised form like those we see in Arab countries or in historical USA/Europe. Since these slaveries are isolated incidents of corrupt individuals or mafia's in the society, it's not so easy to eradicate. Nor can you blame any government, except the law enforcement agencies. This type of problem exists in every nation today, and more in the poverty stricken segments of society. Nobody has a right to use this as a way to smear a nation's image, for every nation has serious problems of some sort. Do you really think that a new India is being built solely by these slaves? You deny credit to millions of people who worked hard on their own initiatives.

    Its very sad I have personally seen such happening during my childhood in UP.Rural people are like honest to core and fall to such traps due to illiteracy.
    I think when we have schemes like Aganwadi & Narega from central Govt. its just the matter of these people to be rescued by Local panchayat/Police help and get themselves involved into central schemes.
    Should be task at local panchayat/gram/block level like BDOs & Gram pradhan to assist.
    But I feel that most of brick workers are from other states with no local support and they are mostly get trapped with not much cash to return back to their native areas.
    For a Brick Klins I feel Labour law enforcement can take this case specially for this industry like its been done for other cottage industries.
    Not sure how remote this area is where issue is reported but in all UP is better reachable/accessible where NGOs can help.

      I think you are right as fas as central govt schems are concerned, but the hw much of these schemes realy working on the ground is debatable. Under NAREGA trees were planted and never cared for, crores of money used for plantation has gone in dust. Toilets were built in villages without any sewer or passage, now used to store cow dung. Roads made but never cared for and now its tough to even walk on them. There is now emploment guaruntee scheme by Govt of Inida which these people will quailfy to be benefited under, but they do not have access to it coz, you rightly pointed out they are likely from different state and on top of that unaware of such scheme. The Gampanchayat officials are now new breed of high income no job group in India. Withing five years of their tenure, they become millionaire and there is high probability that they win election for next couple of terms with the help of illgotten money. Its clear and in open and all and sundry seems to be aware of these things at the very ground where it happens, but every one is happy and no one complains, coz no one listen and also coz the complainant may loose his/her life.
      My friend Laws are plenty but execution is absent, where it executed, the corrupt officials and clerks have made it lame and of no use to common people.
      Behind the farce of shining and thiving India lies a darl picture which no one wants to look at, coz thats not pleasent to the psyche of eponantially growing middle class. I hope some day things will changes and the so called and utopian ramrajya (As Mahatma Gandhi had dreamed, but no one cares about that in modern India) will be restored where all will live in plenty and in peace and harmony......

    Kumar,

    whether you are a Pakistani, or whatever you may be, I admire you for your will to speak the truth. What kind of religion would justify the enslavement of any group? Which God justifies oppression?

    India cannot progress with a society where half of the population is free and half is enslaved. Corruption, on the other hand is pervasive in almost every country in the world. There is no other country in the world like India wherein the caste you are born into determines your destiny. A person born into a poor family in Nigeria, Colombia, Venezuela, or just name the country can become someboby if he/she is very bright. In India, if you are born into a socalled Dalit family, regardless of the fact that you might have a near genius intelligence, you are doomed. This is wrong.

    Another Awesome Article by Sara Sidner on India. I am glad its not the monkeys this time. What CNN is doing is the right thing. I guess before we get too high on India we should read other articles from other countries in this section about exploitation of people in different ways much more malevolent than asking Indian people to work off their debt. Please dont make this about country. Make this about humanity!

      Any time a human being is forced to serve another's will without any choice in the matter and without deriving any personal benefit beyond being kept alive to serve the master – that is slavery. If you had a lick of common sense, you would know this.

        Michael its you that lack common sense and not Cameron because these people are working free to pay off the debts that their forefathers contracted, they are not shunning away from their responsibilities, in India there are no laws that protect people against bankruptcy or debts, so once again I insist dont act smart because you are ignorant concerning laws of other countries.

    This is only different from the USA in degree, not in essence.
    Here in the USA, families are dispossessed and hounded for debt even after the death of the debtor. Recently a Texas man died halfway through his apartment lease; the landlord went after the widow for the rest of the rent! This is legal in the USA! Try dying with credit card debt or with a mortgage – they will come after your grieving family. Of course you can pay extra to keep them away – an easy out for the rich, but more than many Americans can afford.
    If slavery is working for others' profit without any hope of improvement for oneself or one's family, then slavery is thriving in the USA thanks to corporate greed and Congressional corruption.

Americans were once in similar conditions in the late 1800's and early 1900's and we fought for the basic human rights of workers. Will India or China have a Triangle Shirtwaist fire??? Have they already and only cover it up to keep American firms involved in their countries? The ethical playing field needs to be level as well as the economic.

    This happens with Indian IT companies. They force employees to sign 3 to 6 month bonds. Incase you try and leave before giving notice period of 6 months they will cut your salary, retirement benefits, gratuity etc. They send court notice. Tata Consultancy Services forces employees to sign 3-6 months bonds and incase the employee leaves with a notice of less than 6 months then they send court notices to employees, holds their salary, holds their retirement benefits.
    This is also a modern day slavery for white collar jobs.

      I have made a lot of comments on this series questioning the stats of alleged trafficking into the US because I canont believe that much goes on under our noses. But I did not make this original comment. And I have questioned what they call "trafficking" because the federal definition of trafficking is very broad and does not require the elements of force or restraint. Under our own definition, a woman can willfully enter prostitution, get paid, be able to leave anytime, and it is still called "trafficking". That is a flawed definition.

      I will start using "KenX" as my name.

      I veried with some of my Indian friends in the office that this is unfortunatley true in India, but it is "much less common than 15-20 years ago." They said it still exists in some rural areas. It appears to be a deminishing problem....and good.

You are charged 40-50% interest which you are not able to pay either. Your credit rating is scr$wed..so you cannot take further credit.. and here you go..without knowing you are in a credit trap equivalent of current day slavery.. companies will see your credit rating and standing before giving you a job, credit, loan etc.. so you cannot get anything.. atleast in India these people are giving jobs and an oppertunity to pay off the loan..

    My family works a lot with social issues in India and Ill provide some insight. This is a terrible problem in India. Indians should not be ashamed or be defensive. The fact is, as great as the country is – these are horrible social and working conditions. India has the advantage where courts and the constitution protect workers and each year workers organize and get more rights. But corruption and power make it an uphill battle.

    The good news is that NGO's and Charities are dramatically improving the situation. Let me give an example of woman empowerment. Most successfull NGO's dont try to turn a village woman into a urban womnan. We know whats possible. Help out for abuse victims but dont try to change the world. Instead focus on education. My aunt just completed a 30 year project where all she did was provide reading and writing skills to girls for 2 hours a day in the 70's. No school, still worked all the time in the fields. But that little education was enough to get a few of the moms to want to send their daughters to go to school. After 4 generations – without any revolution or fighting or drastic change almost all girls go to a full school day until 15. Many leave the village and pump money back in. Fertility in the village has gone from 8 to around 3. This story is being replicated all over India.

    So the story you read above is horrible, its real, and people should try to help – but in the background litteracy has skyrocketed for children and the overall extreme poverty rate for India continues to go down fast evey year. Unfortunately for western media a drop from 40% to 10% still means a millions of horror stories and photographs. But the vast majority of Indians are working towards the goal of eliminating this kind of situation. It might take another 30 years but at least the metrics show every year is better. Thats the trend of a future superpower.

    You can dislike the way Doc Savage said it, but there is an absolute truth to this. One of the biggest problems with poverty and welfare is the poorest and least capable are the ones that have the most children. 7 children when you have to work to pay off debt (not that anyone should be bonded by others debt) is not smart, literate or not. The same goes for people in this country that are too poor to pay for their own health care(medicaid) or food (food stamp recipients) and yet many have 5+ children. You don't need to read to know how children are born, and you dont need to be highly educated to know about condoms. Is there issues with opportunity, of course there is, but that doesn't take the responsibility of personal decisions out of your hands just b/c you aren't in the best situation. Those of you that don't realize over population is the biggest threat to economic sustainability as well as the environment are living in a dream world.

    Poverty is the worst affliction suffered by mankind.Poverty is the mother of invention or crime (or exploitation).Bonded labour is prevalent on the entire Indian sub-continent and can only be eradicated by law-enforcement agencies and rehabilitated by the government.The extreme greed and hatred prevalent generally throughout the world (and its resulting victims)cannot be remedied by 'LEADERS'because of their 'vested interests'.The wind of change is blowing thruogh the world and it will strengthen People's Power.The world has seen some miraculous changes in the past i.e.the end of apartheid in South Africa,fall of the USSR and re-unification of Germany.Humanity is slowly sensing its divine aspect which is exposing everything for what it truly is-'doodh ka dhood paani ka paani'.The world has now moved on.The structures of the past (political.social,economic,religious,etc.)are inadequate to deliver freedom,justice,dignityand equalty that the world needs.The present structures/systems are out of date because they only reward competition (not competence)greed,ruthlessness,exploitation and inhibits sharing,justice,freedom and realising that all humanity is one.

    If you want to fight slavery, get serious. The government obviously isn't going to do a doggoned thing. You want change? Then fight for it. Criminals do not respect anything other than force. So, bring the pain. Stories and tears and prayers will not get ou anything. A bullet through the head of a criminal is how you end a criminal's career, end of story.

The Indians on this forum are thoroughly embarrassed as the rest of the world has seen what their largest democracy is based upon. Our economy would be growing at 10% if we had free labor here in the US. So again, its requested stop bad mouthing India.

    We have slavery in America today, it's called H1B and illegal immigrants. An H1B comes in and cannot change jobs because they are sponsored. An illegal gets a job and can't complain because they will be deported. When are we going to fix our own issues?

    Slowly, over time, this will happen in the U.S. Big business and banks in America are already trying to find ways to manipulate its clients. They lobby hard to make laws more and more complex to the point the average America cannot understand them any longer. The elite politicians always seem to want to cut funding to education first. In some schools they no longer teach handwriting, claiming it is obsolete in the computer age. This in being done at some of the poorest schools where kids don't even have access to computers. Be aware and always teach you're kids the things they need to know in today's world.

    Nothing new. It has been going on for centuries now in India. Change will come only when;
    a) As a person you can file bankrupcy in a court of Law across India if debt can not be paid back
    b) Law provides all protection from lenders to borrowers – US style system for debt protection.

    These things have to start now and government has to work in making them as law.

    Unfortunately this is India being an Indian i know how corrupt my country is ....Over the years Govt has failed to take care of Rural India where they still can't make two meals a day and has to rely on corrupt babus who employ them and exploit them. The corruption is visible every where in Govt offices where unless you give bribe nobody would even look at you doesn't matter if you are a senior citizen or a disable person there is absolutely no mercy.I have my parents living in that corrupt country and am always worried about them. Unfortunately there is a big social divide amongst the society where rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer in India and current Congress Govt who is lead by an Italian is doing nothing to prevent it. I guess the Indians need to go the Libyan way and throw them out of power...

Rather than thinking of what others should do, think what you can do to others. Being a citizen of India, I would say that India is not really as bad as it is potrayed in this article. There are exceptions everywhere, in developed countries there's drug/gun problems, does that mean than whole nation is like that? Most of the people who sit in front of computers, who have lavish life style, don't have any right to comment on people who are devastated by some poor economic conditions.

    Its always a feel good factor to focus on another country's problems . Just a few days ago I read a CNN article about how to bring back US's influence on the world .
    This is the answer- By publishing negative aspects and problems of another country and brainwashing Americans that they still are better than others.
    For the record, India is doing extremely well in areas such as science, technology and innovation. No American will talk about it because they dont want to digest the fact that a "third world country" is making tremendous progress and is on its way to becoming a major superpower.
    I hope you also publish an article about the ghetto lives of some of the so called big cities of America and how much money the USA owes its people and the rest of the world.

As long as there are governments demanding we pay taxes on everything, and we support the lazy individuals and expect everyone to live by the same standards, expect to see slavery, debt, etc...

    Since not much world history is taught in schools these days– FYI, many of the poor countries, particularly like India, Bangladesh, Kenya etc are poor because of Imperialism.

    I doubt very much if it is the initial debt that burdens them. It sounds very similar to the 'company store' the coal mines had. The miners used to work to pay off the bill at the store for food/lodging but never made enough to reduce the debt. I am sure the landowner in India charges them for lodging and food, so no matter how much they work, it produces a negative result at the end of the day.

    There is no dignity of labor in India. A janitor is looked like they are scum, a waiter is yelled at for just bringing food a certain way, a paperboy is looked at like he will forever be a paperboy. There is no respect for women, except because if they don't they might get in trouble with the law.

    India for all its progress in recent times is still backwards (trust me I am Indian who live in the states). Even indians who live in the US have this close mindedness.

    All this with educated citizens of India. Now imagine what happens with illiterate people.

    Politicians are elected by how much power and fear they can weild (literally some places politicians run for office by the number of murders they have committed) and we are surprised by the corruption in India?

    So I'm guessing that this form of slavery is barbaric. Not really a guess, but could be mutually agreed upon.

    I'm sure the situation is a lot worse than what this article portrays for the folks in India.

    My question; what is the difference between the slavery they are in and the slavery the whole world is in? Standard of living (yes), wages (yes), social treatment (yes). Perhaps the difference is in that a majority of the world is OK with being a slave to a form of currency. Currency forces everyone into slavery of some form where the slave owners are the ones controlling the currency. Brash, obscene, flat out ridiculous? Perhaps. But what if you quit your job, now what?

    The problem is these people are praying on the ignorance of others. By 'loaning' out $20 they receive many times more than that in work and I'm sure they have some very high interest rate so the $20 can never be paid off at the rate in which they accredit their work. In America banks do similiar things to the ignorant by loaning them money in the form of check advances or credit and charging very high interest rates but only asking a small amount be paid back every month. That way they will never pay off the initial debt and the bank will earn many times more their initial pay out. The way we do it is more civilized but it is still very similiar.

    I have seen these slaves work conditions first-hand, they are called 'Bhatta' slaves in rural India &Pakistan. Debts can start as little as $50 to treat a sick child and end up enslaving generations to come because of unfair accounting practices and compounded interest.
    The fight should be against feudalism, which compels them to stay there through the use of voilence and intimidation. They need financial and legal support of the serious kind. The Indian government is well capable of accomplishing this, but need to be 'forced' through affluent countries like the U.S., who are a trade partner and crucial in getting India recognition on the international stage. This is a very strong bargaining chip and leverage tool.

    Now this is terrible, I would rather die than being treated a slave. I believe and know nobody can take away my God giving rights, because God himself gave man right to choose between right and wrong, life and death, good and bad. So, people can only take away what is giving them by other people. I wonder how one person could influence thousands to crime or tyranny without anyone standing up to him. It goes a long way to show that people themselves do not know their stand or are not sure of it. Well left to me, anyone attempting that around me will surely pay with something dear, possibly his own very life and I am sure i will have God's support on that because he himself knighted me. Maybe I should have been a bloody zealous american soldier.

    America is full of slaves, mostly women forced or conned into prostitution but most men ignore than concept. Oh sure, they LOVE having sex with you guys. Now how many men want to have sex with a bunch of fat, drunk, crude old ladies who think they are desired. 🙂
    Some cultures favor big families, it's quite likely the only form of support in old age the parents will have. Just because a culture is different doesn't make them better or worse than Americans, it just makes them different. Many Americans are against abortion and providing birth control, but then want to cut health car to infants? You'll forced a woman to bear a child she doesn't want. How about helping care for it? How many in this country, regardless of their faith would volunteer to be a brother's keeper? Slavery is bad anywhere, but if you don't like the way another country does things, pack up and go help them change by your example instead of rolling in with tanks and another shock and awe.

    Some humans are not really humans. They are lower than pond scum masquerading as humans. They don't think twice before sucking the blood or eating the flesh off of other humans, if only that would help them fill their bellies and keep them satisfied. They don't think twice before stepping on other humans and trampling them into the ground, if only that would help them climb up the "social ladder". They wouldn't even think twice before making little kids toil and wet their lawns with tears, sweat or blood, if only that would help make their grass look green.

    This story is BS .. I am from India and know exactly how it works there ..

    The public elsewhere shud understand that India is a 1.3 billion country with a diverse population .. not all can be rich .. not all can be poor .. and not all can be middle-class. There are social strata's that meek out a living by doing daily labour but to compare them with slaves is just an american attempt to portray themselves as an anti-slavery champion and hide their past as slave capitalist. Family of labourers take advance money and agree to commit themselves to a set number of days work, this is not slavery, this is work by their choice. When you pull people away from their villages and ship them to another continent and sell them to a bidder of your choice .. then .. that is what is called slavery my dear Americans.

    Having said the above, I do accept there are several social evils which still need to be eradicated in my country but this articles about slavery in India is total BS from CNN

      Sai,
      Your comment seems so irrelevant. Saying something is BS and American made contrivances does little to change the reality of what is happening. Does this really seem contrived to you or is it just that you dont want to face the facts? Is it that you love your country so much that the tragedy of a fellow country man is just an inconvience and minor blemish to you? So how just is it to be working towards some day that you never are sure will happen? How just is it to be paid wages in such a designed manner that you will never find yourself out of the pit you fell into? Send some of your family members there and then afterwards rant about how it is just BS.

    You people have no clue about India. Everyone seems to be very interested but the next big hollywood thing comes out or if XBOX makes a new thing these Indian atrocities will not matter.

    This is not the only ghastly thing happening in India. There are kids abducted, arms severed, eyes plucked and used as beggars on the street. That has become like an underground business.

    Nothing will matter because, me included, we are all complacent with our own priorities while there is death and suffering elsewhere. People we entrust to make these things not happen are in on it like the politicians, police of India. We can probably hold our silence for 2 mins and move on because there will always be someone to exploit the weak.

    The more I read posts from people on these stories, the less faith I have in my fellow man. Not to reduce this to a religious emperitive, but didn't Jesus say "As you treat the least among you, you treat me"? There are similar quotes in Buddhism, Judiasm, and Islam as well. And I did I *really* read a comment on here from someone who went to medical school trying to equate his college loans with involuntary servitude?! Are you kidding me? Is someone threatening to sell your mom into prostitution if you don't pay them back? People in the West (and the U.S. specifically) have a lifestyle that many people around the world can't even possibly *fathom*, yet to try to put yourself forth as 'put upon'. You are a joke.

I am helping my own village people from last 12 years, how much can I do myself? there are 25% -40% of people are below poverty line in India. Most folks do not understand the whole situation, only looking modern side of India, but not at root level... I read lot of excellent comments made here, to bring up this message to govt level, only way some one needs to build a nice documentary and publish on world network like this CNN. Then you will see the response from everyone. Billiions of dollors are allocated by Govt, most 95% goes to middle govt servants and other officials never reach to the bottom who really needed.

PEOPLE has no choice when they are hungry " they do whatever they can to save themselevs and their siblings". But unfortunately, they are trapped. Yes, they have taken loan, but the work they do is 10x times than what they got paid. They are not educated and bonded for generations .... Stupid officials never take a step until you pay bribe... That really bothers me. This article is 100% is true. Accepting the truth is hard, but it is real. ...Hope you understand.

Yes, there are people who are in the brick backing business. This business involves digging earth, making earth dough that will be converted in to rows of bricks which will be backed and sold.
    The owner of Brick Kline Oven called 'Bhatta' hires this labor on contract – you may call it a short term slavery or what ever. Some have political links too but over all I don't think these labor stays permanently. They move from town to town and even from one 'Bhatta' to another in the same are.
    Life is tough, but show me where the life is easy. There is so much to do to bring up these people from poverty. But in any case some one got to do the dirty job. Watch TLC Dirty job.

    Interesting discussion. Many of my ancestors worked under a similar arrangement. They could not afford the trip to escape their country of origin, so they agreed to work for years in exchange for a trip out, essentially borrowing the fare for the trip and repaying it in labor. When arriving in my country, they were essentially sold to bidders on the other end. I don't know if the conditions were so oppressive, or whether they would describe it as "slavery" ......or "opportunity." I am an American, and the descendant of indentured servants. I appreciate the sacrifices they made and clearly live in a new world where it seems almost unimaginable that that sort of thing would happen. so....slavery? or opportunity? that is the question.

Check them out at the charitynavigator website (it's an org) or do a search online to make a donation directly. Here are the organizations names, and their mottos:

    -Free the Slaves : Working to end slavery worldwide
    -The Advocates for Human Rights : Promoting and protecting internationally recognized human rights
    -Equality Now : Working to end violence and discrimination against women and girls

    And there are others, of course. One of the largest ones that deals with general poverty worldwide is CARE (rated 3 stars, due to its size).

I simply tried to help out by researching a number of charities, and selected a handful that seemed relevant and were well rated. There are others charities, if you prefer.

The rich are getting rich on the back of the little man that once was the middle class in this country. Mandatory insurance, heating costs, electricity, gasoline, food.

    CNN didn't have to go to India. Modern-day slavery exists in the United States on plantations in isolated areas of rural Mississippi and Louisiana. Escapees have testified to horrendous beatings, starvation, burying alive, hacking into pieces of women and babies for fish bait, unending work, and murder of black slaves. It was known as peonage after the War, when slave owners took advantage of newly freed slaves who had nowhere to go, or were arrested on trumped up charges and returned to slavery. Many are still trapped in these hell holes. CNN doesn't want you to know about this because many prominent politicians have knowlege and allow it to continue.. Some of the slaves are white, but because the majority are black, they want it secret. It's much easier to do a story on India.

    @Immortal – Ignore the previous post.

    The problem with your example is that the act of murder, according to law, implies some measure of intent on the part of the murderer. Intent further implies that the murderer–if he is indeed to be called a murderer–held at the time of the crime a reasonable understanding of the consequences of his actions. The victims of usury so described in the article, however, appear to hold scant understanding of what kind of contract they are entering in to–that they will be bound for generations, that their children will be forced into prostitution, that they will likely never escape their debt, and that disobeying those to whom they are indebted will likely yield violence. To say that they should go ahead and learn these things prior to the contract (and I use the term "contract" loosely here) implies the type of widespread literary and social equality simply not present in India (and call me cynical, but I doubt these people are told up front about theses things). What is more, some element of malice should be present in order for "murder" to occur. I doubt the poor people described in the article held anything even closely resembling malice in their decision to become slaves. The same applies to your credit card example: when signing a credit contract–for short-term loans, cars, mortgages–you are presented up front with clear and unmistakable terms (for instance, 4.95% credit over a period of six years).
    Incidentally, whether we call it "slavery" or something else makes little difference, for the results are largely the same: upon threat of violence, the people described above are bound geographically, financially, and politically without hope of legal recourse, and they cannot escape the effects of this bondage even through birth. Sounds a lot like slavery to me. We can go ahead and wrestle with problem semantically–calling it this or that, slavery or something else–but whatever the outcome the fact remains that the practice is fundamentally wrong and cannot be justified.

      Slavery is a form of forced labour in which people are considered to be the property of others. Slaves can be held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase or birth, and deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to demand wages.

Imagine your 5 year old building bricks cause his granddad took out a $22 loan? Chances are, these kids won't get educated and will be left to reproduce more slaves as this is what man grows to do if they know nothing else. Like it or not, this will continue to exist unless bigger countries force government reform, and chances of this happening are slim to none without some kind of carrot, ei..oil

    It is a classic example of human greed, no respect for fellow humans, and a corrupt judiciary and government. I come from India and have seen this many times. If you report this to police, they would want money from you, if you pay them money, they will go to the person who is making these simple, uneducated work like slaves and ask more money from them.

    There is no end to it until the judiciary is strong in India. People who have money can buy the police or judges in no time.
    Change comes from Law and implementation of Law.

    In india, no one cares about law, you can kill someone, pay and be free on the road.

    The western countries have much better judiciary system than in asian or african countries.

This type of thing has been going on for thousands of years and the only thing we can do is argue about it. Unless you are going to pay off their debt, change the law, or start a war, they will stay in slavery.

    There is a lot of loopholes in this shoddy one-sided reporting (and no, I do not support slavery!). So, those people are slaves because of a $100 loan? and after generations they have not figured out how much they owe or don't owe?? I think that is B.S. Even if they are illiterate, I am sure they can count money. Why couldn't the CNN guys there tell them? why couldn't they ask somebody who could read? The illiteracy excuse just doesn't add up. Most likely, these "slaves" have kept on borrowing faster than they can pay it off.

    Lets STOP pointing fingers at each other and stereotyping nations. Bonded Labour is common in India, being carried out under the watchful eyes of the law and politicians because everybody gets a share in the moolah. What we need is exactly what has been done here, bring IT out out on the front pages of CNN, Times, etc so that people, NGO's, governments from all around the world put a pressure on the Indian government to check this societal evil. Only then will those responsible for such acts be punished and the law wake up to the realities.

    There is an old axiom that people get the government they deserve. However, the good people of Wisconsing never reckoned on the their new governor's radical assault on the institution of collective bargaining. After creating a financial crisis with his business tax cuts, the governor turned to state employees to make up the difference, which they have agreed to do.

    Will the rabid right ever run out of sacred cows to gore? Or, for that matter, progressive Gores to cow? What's next for rightwing cheap shots, having last week's bushwhacked Michelle Obama's radical support for motherhood, breast-feeding, infant nutrition, and against childhood obesity? Talk about an immoral minority that needs to suckle the milk of human kindness.

    Castigating programs to educate new, needy mothers about the immense virtues of breast milk only reinforces my growing fear there is no pale beyond which extremists may go so repulsive their base turns away in horror. The Tea Party House coalition takes no prisoners, meaning no sacred cows or safe infants or government by and for the people. Charity for all? Gone, forgotten, kaput.

    Yet monumental contradictions persist, like tectonic cracks. All fetuses (who survive conception) must be born, the Biblical right demands, but that doesn't mean public support for the health or prosperity, even life of preterms and newborns. Let them eat cake if babies can't get mother's milk. Getting born is what God dictates, with notably empty mandates for what happens later. Nice.

    Strange how anti-abortionists worship any stranger's unborn fetus (the virulent approving murder of abortion doctors), but accept no social or political obligation to nurture even the neediest youngsters actually born. Life is apparently only holy until you actually start breathing, then it gets hard. What about widespread hunger already afflicting older children, as millions in our country go to bed unfed, a situation that will worsen as government aid evaporates. But for the hard-hearted, life is a condition, a vale of tears, not an entitlement.

    And yet, pro-lifers who reject government intervention for newborns want laws banning abortion, thus awarding the same suspect, formerly hated government crushing power to thwart historic parental rights. Government overreach ain't bad when serving your ideology. Further, the same "pregnancy mandates birth" crowd unabashedly supports the conscious killing of adult prisoners - capital punishment. Nor, considering the chatter about fetal life, do rightwingers hesitate to own guns, not only for killing unarmed animals but facilitating gun accidents by their own unmonitored children.

    Nor does this rabid right even question when our leaders concoct unwarranted wars against a variety of evil-doers, real or perceived. Where was the pro-life outrage when nine innocent Afghan children were mistakenly killed a week ago by American drones fighting an endless, unwinnable war? What about accused adulterers stoned to death in countries flush with our own military?

    When ideologues abandon even pretend solutions to anything real (where're the jobs, Speaker Boehner?), the fallback entails belligerent provocation, exaggerated contempt, indirection, and buffoonery. And so we come to rightwing attacks on the First Lady's modest proposals to advance breast-feeding, granting babies immunity against childhood infections (now producing 900 avoidable infant deaths a year) plus reducing later issues with obesity, diabetes, and food addictions.

    So much for my withered fantasy that some conceivable line of political no return exists - limits beyond which the unhinged cannot go without sharp penalty. The last two years have killed a river of audacious administration hopes, so I accept this current, literal dis-illusion-ment - releasing this illusion. If the right escapes censure for impugning life-supporting breastfeeding, especially for poor and minority single mothers, what isn't vulnerable to sneering assault? Not only was Ms. Obama attacked for "hectoring," but criticized for pushing the new "nanny state" - as if infant health and safety programs are just more "government takeovers."

This is what our great-grandchildren have to look forward to because our politicians can't seem to find middle ground to agree on anything enough to solve the financial problems that plague our Federal Government, and our country.

      Guess what a REAL slave is? None of those factors apply. You never leave, you never pay off anything... you die as a slave.

      So this story is about indentured servants who have a chance...if...they were educated enough to know how much they own and how much they make.

    The authorities of powerful countries should care more about the problems of people with little schooling living in developing nations because the slavery of today reminds us of the time when rich countries benefited from the institutionalized slavery of those who came from poorer countries. Therefore, rich countries have a moral debt to help the vulnerable people currently living in poor nations who are subject to gross human rights violations. Let's not allow things go back to where they were in the past. Slavery is the ultimate degradation of a human being.

The same nation who discriminates on hiring of disabled people like myself at a major university and this happens cause americans are illiterate. We allow inequality in our coutnry cause of control issues.

    people are so cruel these days. like dude its 2011! and slavery is still here! People need to stand up for themselves because this is like the 21st century and as technology is getting more advanced some people are still living the old days. Landowners shouldnt be this mean and people should learn more about the law.

    this reminds me a lot of the famous novel, Grapes of Wrath. When the family thought they had finally found good work, only to be tricked into a kind of slavery where their pay was being swallowed up by the price of food and could not leave the work camp due to their "protection". Amazing story; it pretty much covered slavery, communism and the American dream.

    India is a fully feudal society with full of corruption, as any feudal society has. It's so-called development is mainly restricted among few people and mostly cater the rich and powerful and most importantly these people control local media to beat their own drums. Most of the Indian people we see in western countries also represent that class.
    If anyone wants to glimpse of India and its reasons you can go through BBC blog by BBC's online correspondent Sawtik Biswas (in South Asia section) and read the comments there (most from actual Indian people). I am not posting the link as CNN might not allow it.

    If Britain pays just 1% of the loot from India, lot of people can have food.

    They looted for 200yrs non-stop and became so rich.
    Why don't they pay atleast some of it back ?

    they do not even have the same ethics as the poorest in India have.
    poorest people in India are trying to pay their loans.

    The rich british can atleast pay some of the loot.

    they got so much reparations from germany, so why can't they pay a token amount to india for poor in india..

      Not really. If Britain gives the money, it will never reach the people who don't have food, but will end up in the pockets who already have eaten enough.

    This is slavery, pure and simple. There really isn't even anything to debate there.

    Of course, this is also most likely the future of the US, as Corporate America gains a firmer grasp over the law making process in the US, and the middle class sinks further into poverty, while the rich get richer(as evidenced even now by the fact that the stock market has largely recovered, and gas prices are going up like wildfire, yet unemployment remains at all time high levels, and the housing market at all time lows).

    We, general Indians, including the so-called 'educated" ones almost always blame politicians or police or someone else but ourselves for the downfall. This deterioration increased exponentially as India opened up its economy. We could not develop a matching judiciary, law enforcement and other associated democratic institution to manage the new found greed and novel ways to cheat people and country.
    "Honest" and able politicians or any other professional does not come from the sky, but we have to make and groom them. Indian society does not support that, since may years. Even in so-called "world power" in IT, India can never develop any novel software like Java or C++ or SAP. We only can do routine (mainly maintenance) jobs and use available technology to suit specific need (for the client). As per published report, both India and China is "among the least innovative counrtries in the world".

    If I paid the $22 the brickmaking family owes (the owner will say it's more now because of interest, I'm sure) where would they go? They tppk the money offered. They live at the brick works and get a small amount of food there. There was no work in their village. So even if I paid off their debt, which I would gladly do, would the company start to pay them wages? somehow, I don't think so. For $22 he now has free labor.

    Alimony is slavery. It clearly violates the 13th amendment of the United States constitution. It is involuntary servitude but I don't see CNN ever talking about it. I have asked lawyers and judges to explain how it does not violate the 13th amendment and no one can explain it. That is because it is a crime and one of the worst crimes of all. The only crime worse than slavery is genocide and the state and local governments of America are engaged in it. The only thing the victim is guilty of is studying hard in school and having the wrong physical appendages on their bodies.

    The answer to that one is to avoid marriage in the first place. Alimony in 2011 is ridiculous anyway - jobs are tough to find right now, but that doesn't excuse anyone from trying. Anyone not having the sense to keep up their job skills deserves what they get IMO. But it's not slavery. I paid child support (didn't have those appendages either), and yes, I had to worry about keeping my job since unemployment doesn't get you out of it - but being a responsible parent, I would have worried about it anyway. I chose to have children, and as such chose to support them. CHOICE is not slavery.

    Just like I thought. No one can argue for the case of Alimony because it is illegal. This is the fear that the lawyers and judges around America have always had. Beneath their arrogance and view that they are above the law and untouchable. With revolution taking place in other countries around the world they know if this discussion is brought to the table they can't defend alimony as legal and billions of slave wages will go just as the slave economy did down south. Just as Ellen Degeneres asked straight people to stand up for DADT she along with Oprah and our president should be asked where they stand on this issue. Strom Thurmon immortalized his position on segregation. Let these people state their position just as Thurmond did. Where are you CNN?

    CNN Freedom project. Take an unbiased, fact based, constitutional look at Alimony. All of the evidence has been carfully documented in court. If a victim refuses to pay it they will be assaulted by slave catchers and be wrongfully imprisoned. If they try to defend themselves then they will be killed. Not much different than Kunta Kinte. Only today is much more efficient. At least Southern Slaves could flee to the north via the underground railroad. But not today. If you are an Alimony slave in America you are tracked everywhere you work. And don't give me that excuse saying it is a choice to work. That is just like saying it is OK to throw a gas canister in a room and locking people in it an claiming, "we did'nt force anyone to breathe". You must work in order to eat and if you work you will be an Alimony slave if you have been captured in that net.

    The CNN Freedom project eagerly points out illegal slave trafficking, human trafficking, sex slave trafficking in 3rd world countries. The irony is that those actions are illegal in those 3rd world countries. Even though those countries do not spend the resources necessery to stop it those forms of slavery are clearly illegal in those countries. But in the United States of America the alimony slavery is STATE SANCTIONED!. We know better. We tell other countries to "do as we say and not as we do".

    I would venture to say 100% of the respondents to this article live in economic slavery (translate: they need to work to make a living rather than choose to work to purely make a difference). Over 97% of the world lives in slavery with just the illusion of freedom (the US is no exception, don't believe me? Try and not pay your credit card bill and see what happens).

    Even so-called literate Westerners fall for the debt-trap again and again. Mortgage, credit cards, student loans, etc... of which 3% of the world live off the backs of the 97%.

    Slavery has always existed for as long as humans have failed to see the true value in other human beings. Even those in slavery denigrade each other because they do not feel they slaves or are not aware of the economic shackles they wear.

    You can be a slave as a poor brick maker in India or a slave as a millionaire on Wall Street, both can be restricted from doing what they want or reaching their true potential. One may be poor and the other rich, but both are denied from leading a truly wealthy life.

    After going through the article & these comments one thing is clear, US citizens are worried about job outsourcing. Well its upto the companies and they can have their job done in 1/10 of the expenditure with indians when compared to americans. naturally the companies will choose the better option.

    Another thing is that i've read some people wrote that US should stop all dealings with these types of countries where the workers are treated in a brutal way. It happens everywhere not only in india,but yes may be more % in india compared to US. But what if,,if the US govt: stops all cooperation with these countries. This is not possible at all.

    During recent india visit Obama signed a deal worth $20 billion between 2 countries,which in turn will create 54000 jobs

    in US according to him.All this was said and done despite the restriction on outsourcing from India. US alone cant stand

    without cooperation with other countries . None can blame any of the countries. All have its own problems.

    Where can I go to pay off some of these debts? The low amounts of these debts is ridiculous and don't no where justify what is happening. I for one, would be willing to spend my own money if I could go over there and pay the debts off directly to these SOBs, with the assurance that the people could leave.

    What is done in USA if you dont pay your debt? What is the housing mortage crisis about? In many countries, a person can be jailed for not paying back the loan.If You take a loan and then Work to pay off debt ! CNN thinks its Slavery?

    I see nothing wrong with working to pay off a debt, but these small debts should have been long ago paid off. These are the kinds of things that will keep India from advancing as a nation.

    It is so funny he doesn't use the word slavery because he must have some one in his home working for him
    and here is the thing he is leader and he knows the problem and poverty why they can't change the law ???/ because they liked to be served...

    Imagine your Uncle or great grand father borrowning the equilivant of $150US and from then on the entire family has been working to try and repay the debt with no knowledge of how much was borrowed or how much is left to be paid off. How long can that go on? As long as the system allows it to go on. What would these people do if they did not have this work, starve and be homeless? Do they even know how to make money to earn food, shelter, or inprove their conditions. Where is the government that should be taking care of these illegal activities and bringing knowledge to those that deserve it?

    When will the Universal Declaration of Human Rights address alimony? Alimony is pure slavery plain and simple. Where does America get off chastising other countries on slavery when it is guilty of it. That is why some people refer to America as "The United States of Hypocrisy". America was touting the all men are created equal from the days of the Declaration of Idependence in 1776 until the Emancipation Proclamation. Now America is doing the same thing all over again. America has the nerve to complain about slavery and human rights violations in other countries when alimony clearly violates the 13th amendment of the US constitution. Shame on CNN for not reporting on this.

    The apex stock to spend money on for 2021 range with small-cap precious stones in the rough like URBT to dominant emerging stocks. When you have $300 free right now, the subsequent ground-breaking stock could be wonderful for opportunistic long-term buyers. Urban Television Network Corp stock OTC: URBT. I don't know about you, but once I think of technology, streaming services stocks one thinks of. Within the past decade, we now have perceived extraordinary breakthroughs in internet streaming bit rates along with devices which are developed to support those services. We've seen major streaming services like HBO and Hulu grab market share, but this little known business Urban Television Network Corporation. have introduced impressive internet streaming services URBTPlus. I imagine this corporation will undoubtedly corner the urban internet streaming Market. The stock market forever has a few surprises in store, as any shareholder in 2020 would corroborate. URBT has already been astonishing having a 300 gain over 12 months. But by & large, the major factor professionals are looking at it as they recognize the top stocks to procure for 2021 is the same factor that dominated 2020: COVID-19. And internet streaming service URBTPlus is answering the call. So as an trader look at Urban TV Network Corp. stock symbol URBT. #top5investment2121

    I'm studying for my bachelors degree in computer science, and I might continue on to get a masters degree. I have my A+ and Network+ certifications, and I'm planning on getting Linux, Network Security, and the Microsoft certifications.. . Can I get a job doing computer forensics with this? If not, what should I do to increase my chances of getting a computer forensics job?. . Thanks. Just a little more info: I do more programming than anything with computers, but I'm pretty good with the non-programming side too..

    Thanks for your posting. One other thing is always that individual states have their very own laws of which affect homeowners, which makes it very hard for the Congress to come up with the latest set of guidelines concerning foreclosure on home owners. The problem is that a state provides own regulations which may have impact in a negative manner on the subject of foreclosure plans.

    Storage container houses, also called shipping container homes, provide a quick, sustainable and green solution to conventional building. Because the steel containers are based at a factory-controlled atmosphere, they're standardized, durable and easy to transfer. Home construction crews get the most savings in time and materials because the item is fabricated, pre-fitted for installment, and structurally sound. But seeing as this remains a relatively new sector, the price of labor and materials can sometimes be comparable in cost to a traditional stick build.

    What's up?

    I found this article very interesting...please read!

    Do you remember the blockbuster hit film The Matrix that was released in 1999? You may not know this, but it has deep spiritual implications concerning the times we are living in and Bible prophecy.

    It tells a story of how these "agents" are trying to turn us into machines. We are closer then ever before for this to become a reality when they cause us to receive an implantable microchip in our body during a time when physical money will be no more.

    You may have seen on NBC news concerning the implantable RFID microchip that some people are getting put in their hand to make purchases, but did you know this microchip matches perfectly with prophecy in the Bible?

    "He (the false prophet who deceives many by his miracles) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name...

    You also may have heard of the legendary number "666" that people have been speculating for possibly thousands of years on what it actually means. This article shares something I haven't seen before, and I don't think there could be any better explanation for what it means to calculate 666. This is no hoax. Very fascinating stuff!

    ...Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666" (Revelation 13:16-18 NKJV).

    To see all the details showing why the Bible foretold of all these things, check out this article!

    GOD is sending out His end time warning:

    "Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, 'If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name'" (Revelation 14:9-11).
