India is a source, destination, and transit country for men, women, and children trafficked for the purposes of forced labor and commercial sexual exploitation; internal forced labor may constitute India's largest trafficking problem. Men, women, and children are held in debt bondage and face forced labor working in brick kilns, rice mills, agriculture, and embroidery factories. Women and girls are trafficked within the country for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation and forced marriage especially in those areas where the sex ratio is highly skewed in favor of men. Girls are sold at a young age and suffer with diseases such as HIDS or AIDS. Children are subjected to forced labor as factory workers, domestic servants, beggars, and agriculture workers, and have been used as armed combatants by some terrorist and insurgent groups. India is a destination for women and girls from Nepal and Bangladesh trafficked for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation. Indian women are trafficked to the Middle East for commercial sexual exploitation. Slum dog millionaire, Jamal and Salim were able to have shelter and enough food but were forced to beg for money for this man. This man also blinded one boy to make him look for pathetic and to bring in more money. NGOs estimate this problem affects 20 to 65 million Indians.
