Vaishali Bahubalendra, Assistant Professor, SOA National Institute of Law

ABSTRACT


Equality by selection is no equality. The above-mentioned phrase is the cornerstone of the right to equality guaranteed under our Indian Constitution. Prostitution has deep roots in Indian society and has not cropped up in a day. So the delay in its legalisation is an utter dismay. Legalisation of it has been a dilemma and so also a moral hazard. Rights of sex workers are at par with that of other citizens. Laws are prepared for different class of people and so also for a single person as well, at this juncture it is essential to ponder about the people who have been left out of the process of unification and equalisation in the society.
