The girl said her mother had forced another minor girl into prostitution and later married her off to a middle-aged man. Acting on a complaint from a minor girl against her mother, the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) helped in getting three people arrested for allegedly forcing another 17-year-old girl into prostitution and marriage. “The accused woman’s daughter in order to save the minor girl reached the house in Chandni Chowk where the girl was married off,” said an official. The complainant with the help of the NGO rescued the minor girl from where she was married and approached DCW. Recently, the commission was approached by a minor girl, who came with an NGO representative.
