India, a land of contrasts (slavery and a blooming economy)

The document is a report about slaves in India. It deals with bride trafficking, a modern type of slavery.  A woman is sold to a man by her parents. She is then the slave of her husband, who can make her work around the house (for the house chores and for sex) and outside the house for agriculture.
