Trafficking in children is a global problem affecting large numbers of children. Some estimates have as many as 1.2 million children being trafficked every year. There is a demand for trafficked children as cheap labour or for sexual exploitation. Children and their families are often unaware of the dangers of trafficking, believing that better employment and lives lie in other countries.

‘10-massacre general’, ex-Guv KV Krishna Rao dies


SRINAGAR: Jagmohan, who oversaw some of the worst massacres of Kashmiris during his brief spell in power at the beginning of the anti-India revolt in 1990, is probably the most-reviled governor ever deputed by New Delhi. The rule of another former governor, General KV Krishna Rao, who died today, was no less bloody.

A former army chief of India, Rao passed away at 93 on Saturday due to cardiac.

General Kotikalapudi Venkata Krishna Rao served J&K twice—from 11 July 1989 to 19 January 1990 and 13 March 1993 to 2 May 1998.

According to Jammu Kashmir Coalition of Civil Society, Rao’s second tenure witnessed 10 massacres:

  • 10 April 1993: BSF kill 10 civilians and injured one
  • 10 April 1993: BSF kill 6 civilians, injure 3
  • 26 June 1993: ITBP kill four inmates in Jammu jail, injure 13
  • 26 June 1993: Army kill 7 civilians, injure 13 in Muminabad
  • 30 July 1993: Army kills 9 civilians, injures 3 others in Hangul-Buch Pulwama
  • 14 August 1993: BSF kills 30 and injures 57 civilians
  • 27 November 1993: Army kills 15 civilians during search operation, 7 injured
  • 27 January 1994: Army kills 18 civilians, injures 39
  • 19 March 1994: Army kills 6 civilians, injured 3 in Mahind
