Child selling market (Bachha Bazaar)
Have you ever heard a child being sold in a market? We know abortion is illegal, so is the new trend of selling unwanted children to a child agent. Even research says, every year more than 1.2 million children are being sold and trafficked, instead the ratio is in increasing rate rather than decreasing.
Where has sciences gone? If we still today believe in gender biased discrimination and we no more want daughters, because they are not the ones who can help us to continue the races of our generation.
Justified by the role of a crime reporter Karan, who was somewhere aware by the news of child selling market. He wanted to know the case beneath the heard story and thought of investigating it by his own style. He was in search of an agent, a child selling agent through whom he could get into the investigation, but it was not easy, he was still in search for the correct agent.
My nerves went out of control, when I heard a story, story of a mother who was in search of her child, declared death during birth. She was Ridima, divorced lady, A single mother to be. She was pregnant and living with her father. Their economic condition was not that good, instead Ridima was concerned to raise her child, but her father was not ready to see her daughters life go wasted, as if she was only 22 and could have a fresh start.
Near came Ridima’s delivery date, and the delivery charges were also too expensive for her father to afford. During counselling, doctor of the particular hospital convinced Ridima’s father to sell his grandchild after his/her birth so that he could also earn some money and not need to panic for hospital bills. Her father agreed, wanting his child to have a new family start.
The next day, the child was born, he was a baby boy, they agreed to sale the child. Unaware of all these conspiracies, Ridima went blank when she got to know that she gave birth to a dead child. She was not ready to accept the fact, but the cruel truth is her child was already sold.
While all these issues were going on, crime reporter Karan was still searching for ways to get into, and was travelling every hospitals and clinics. Restless and worried, revolving questions in mind like every other unsuccessful day he was on his way to his home, suddenly meets a person on hospital gate who was ready to give him details of a child agent. Karan now got a hope for his project.
Where on the other hand, Ridima who was in trauma after her child’s death, hears her father detailing about the child. She finds out that her child was sold by her father and the causes behind that. A strong mother in search of her child, goes to the hospital, to find the person to whom her child was exactly sold. Nurse in fear of being caught by police gives every details of the agent, and gets to know that her child was sold to Pappan.
After collecting all the information's about Pappan, Ridima was no in search of Pappan. Karan, the crime reporter finally met the main agent who actually verifies if the person will be getting child or not. So, during all those formalities the main agent verified Karan and told him to come the next day with his wife. Alas! where will he find a wife from. While he was panicking on how to solve the next mystery, suddenly his eyes pops on a lady who was secretly peeping out from the small hole from the corner. Karan, decided to follow her. The lady was none other than Ridima, who was there in search of Pappan, that agent who bought her child.
Ridima shared all her issues with Karan, and Karan decided to help her. They both made a plan of acting as husband wife and helping each other. The next day they went and were in a queue. Ridima was sure that her child was there, but how would she recognize him? She had not seen him before despite his cries that rumbles in her ear. They decide to take the child who was 2–4 days older. Oh my goodness, as they enter inside, they see the crowd of children, their cries, all kept in baskets to sell, like vendors keep veges and fruits in a market. That is why, it was called Bachha Bazaar. It was a child selling market for sure.
Now, it was Ridima’s examination, there were 2 children of the same age group and she had to recognize her child. With lots of confusion in her head she picked a child from the range of two and was heading to the counter, suddenly hears, “Agent! Agent! The child brought by Pappan is having high fever, can die anytime”. Oh god! Ridima after hearing this ran in dismay towards her child and a mom that time was ready to face any obstacles to get her child.
Karan was supported by police, so he had a protection that time, he immediately gave signal to the police force and finally all those illegal child vendors were arrested. Ridima got her child, and rest of the rescued children were handed back to their parents those identified and unidentified ones were admitted in an NGO, even kept in police records. The hospitals supporting these types of illegal works were sealed and license of all those arrested doctors and nurses were seized.
One of the most amazing works done, it feels bad when we get to know about the issues like this. A child marketing being done from the hospital, by such learned people just because they could earn some more money?
This is so heart breaking that even in our countries these types of issues may be happening, but we are unaware of all these. Or, may be we are aware but we fear to speak up. Speak up peps, if these things are going around you or take a stand to abolish these illegal deeds, because you know our one step can save a child from begging in the streets, going through tortures, being a slave and moreover our country from being damaged.
Nothing is impossible! But why not we jointly make good deeds possible and negativeness to impossible. Good day!
