Prevention and Control of Trafficking

Gram Niyojan Kendra (GNK) has adopted comprehensive area development programs as a core strategy to combat trafficking and prevent the exploitation of women and girls. Under the banner of “Samriddhi”—meaning empowerment—we have successfully implemented our Control and Prevention of Trafficking and Prostitution program across various geographies. This initiative strengthens communities, enhances awareness, and provides sustainable solutions to protect vulnerable populations from exploitation.

Launched in the early 1990s, our intervention began as a pioneering effort to prevent trafficking among the Nat and Bedia communities.

Today, our initiatives have expanded to include Samriddhi Bal Vidya Mandir Madhyamik Vidyalaya, a school dedicated to promoting education as a powerful tool for change.

We actively engage in community mobilization across 40 villages, working tirelessly to prevent trafficking and ensure the well-being of children through education, awareness, and protection-focused initiatives..
