Another ugly demon has reared its head.  Women forced to undergo a hysterectomy by employers so they neither menstruate nor have children any more.  So that it is convenient for them to be sexually exploited.  And then claim it is voluntary.  The employers give an 'advance' for the hysterectomy which is later recovered.  If they are unable to work they are fined heavily for the day when they don't report to work.

Right now this is being reported from parts of Maharashtra.  It is imperative to do something about this before it spreads and becomes one more blot on our country's record.
