The high court in India slapped down the regulations governing sex work, Sex work in India is legal is what they have said. Is this enough?
One sex worker feels that it is due to her work that, in her family, her voice is now heard. She is now seen as being independent and capable of earning and supporting her family. Nayana and Chaya are one of the many sex workers who came to Kamathipura as ‘majboori‘(helplessness) but have found ‘azadi’(freedom) in its brothels. Yet what seems unattainable to these women is the samman(respect) accorded to other work forms.
