Five women have been rescued from being trafficked to India from Gaddachauki, border point in the Far-Western Region of the country. The women were heading towards Delhi from Pokhara on a bus. They said they were going to Kyrgyzstan for employment. Coordinator of the Maiti Nepal, Maheshwari Bhatt, said that the women were rescued after they informed that they would go to Kyrgyzstan from New Delhi. Only two of them had citizenship and passport. They have been provided shelter by the Maiti Nepal. "A human trafficking agent may have called them in the pretext of providing them foreign employment," coordinator Bhatt said, adding that two women had even given 50,000 to the agents. Information about the trafficking agents will be garnered, she added. The rescued women are from Syangja, Parbat, and Kaski districts.
