Introduction: From the long past our human society is being led by
the males. Women are under the jaws of depression Torture and
deprivation. According to history women in the long and recent past were
made captive within four walls or kept under the cover of parda. Men
treated them like daily commodities. Men are alluring women with the
false hopes and they are traffickg them to different countries as
workers in ignominious jobs. Many women go in the dark world and work in
bad places. Minor children also are the victims of repression in the
hands of the miscreants. Minor boys and girls are abducted and sold In
different countries. Women and child trafficking is a grave concern:
Many women, married or unmarried, are being transported to different
agencies under the banner of employment. But in course of time they are
employed as workers or at low jobs, For lack of education and
self-consciousness women stay back in the progress of life and hardly
understand the tricky game of the trafficking agencies. The
simple-minded women are credulous to the alluring words of the culprits
and fall victims of demolition of self-esteem and self-rights. Once the
job seeker women are caught in the network of the miscreants, they can
hardly get rid of the trafficking gang. Remedies: A recent United
Nations Population Fund (UNFP) report says that Bangladesh tops the
world charts when it comes to violence committed against its women by
men. The constitution of Bangladesh includes an Act with which
Bangladesh government can take punitive measures against trafficking and
repression of women. Women education should be stressed first and
social security for the child as well as child education should be
ensured. Mass media, public propaganda, interactions of social views and
awareness of existing law and order may help reduce women and child
repression in our country. Women have got a new position in the society.
They have gained an equal right and privilege. There are women
political leader lawyers, magistrates, judges, professors, teachers,
officers and subordinate employees in Bangladesh. Women are not now
lagging behind as they were in the past. More and more women are also
taking up Jobs and becoming economically independent and yet much is
left to be done. Conclusion: Bangladesh has several laws specifically
protecting women rights to life and safety and for severely punishing
the offenders. But no measure has been taken to strictly implement laws
protecting women. As a result crimes perpetrated against women have
increased. It is hopeful that different socio-economic organizations
have taken a laudable initiative to preserve the rights of women and
children through constitution.
