&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;It underlined that the US government funded the 2017 report which estimated 40 million slaves in the world, including 25 million in the Asia-Pacific.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
WARNING that &amp;ldquo;global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,&amp;rdquo; the Intelligence Bureau in a &amp;ldquo;secret&amp;rdquo; note has recommended a strong campaign to &amp;ldquo;discredit&amp;rdquo; the information and a diplomatic offensive against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister&amp;rsquo;s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&amp;amp;AW last week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), &amp;ldquo;has enough potential to substantially harm India&amp;rsquo;s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.&amp;rdquo; This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report &amp;ldquo;Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage&amp;rdquo; on September 19.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery &amp;ldquo;under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves &amp;ldquo;made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.&amp;rdquo; They produce &amp;ldquo;some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear&amp;rdquo; and they clean &amp;ldquo;the buildings in which many of us live or work.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey &amp;ldquo;to fund NGOs to focus on alleged &amp;lsquo;slavery&amp;rsquo; in South India&amp;rsquo;s textile industry (40% of India&amp;rsquo;s textile exports)&amp;rdquo; while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK &amp;ldquo;make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, &amp;lsquo;Flawed Fabrics&amp;rdquo;, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;It underlined that the US government funded the 2017 report which estimated 40 million slaves in the world, including 25 million in the Asia-Pacific.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
WARNING that &amp;ldquo;global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,&amp;rdquo; the Intelligence Bureau in a &amp;ldquo;secret&amp;rdquo; note has recommended a strong campaign to &amp;ldquo;discredit&amp;rdquo; the information and a diplomatic offensive against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister&amp;rsquo;s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&amp;amp;AW last week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), &amp;ldquo;has enough potential to substantially harm India&amp;rsquo;s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.&amp;rdquo; This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report &amp;ldquo;Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage&amp;rdquo; on September 19.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery &amp;ldquo;under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves &amp;ldquo;made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.&amp;rdquo; They produce &amp;ldquo;some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear&amp;rdquo; and they clean &amp;ldquo;the buildings in which many of us live or work.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey &amp;ldquo;to fund NGOs to focus on alleged &amp;lsquo;slavery&amp;rsquo; in South India&amp;rsquo;s textile industry (40% of India&amp;rsquo;s textile exports)&amp;rdquo; while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK &amp;ldquo;make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, &amp;lsquo;Flawed Fabrics&amp;rdquo;, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.&lt;br /&gt;

WARNING that &amp;ldquo;global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,&amp;rdquo; the Intelligence Bureau in a &amp;ldquo;secret&amp;rdquo; note has recommended a strong campaign to &amp;ldquo;discredit&amp;rdquo; the information and a diplomatic offensive against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister&amp;rsquo;s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&amp;amp;AW last week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), &amp;ldquo;has enough potential to substantially harm India&amp;rsquo;s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.&amp;rdquo; This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report &amp;ldquo;Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage&amp;rdquo; on September 19.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery &amp;ldquo;under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves &amp;ldquo;made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.&amp;rdquo; They produce &amp;ldquo;some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear&amp;rdquo; and they clean &amp;ldquo;the buildings in which many of us live or work.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey &amp;ldquo;to fund NGOs to focus on alleged &amp;lsquo;slavery&amp;rsquo; in South India&amp;rsquo;s textile industry (40% of India&amp;rsquo;s textile exports)&amp;rdquo; while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK &amp;ldquo;make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, &amp;lsquo;Flawed Fabrics&amp;rdquo;, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report &amp;ldquo;Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage&amp;rdquo; on September 19.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery &amp;ldquo;under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves &amp;ldquo;made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.&amp;rdquo; They produce &amp;ldquo;some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear&amp;rdquo; and they clean &amp;ldquo;the buildings in which many of us live or work.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey &amp;ldquo;to fund NGOs to focus on alleged &amp;lsquo;slavery&amp;rsquo; in South India&amp;rsquo;s textile industry (40% of India&amp;rsquo;s textile exports)&amp;rdquo; while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK &amp;ldquo;make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, &amp;lsquo;Flawed Fabrics&amp;rdquo;, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;It underlined that the US government funded the 2017 report which estimated 40 million slaves in the world, including 25 million in the Asia-Pacific.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
WARNING that &amp;ldquo;global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,&amp;rdquo; the Intelligence Bureau in a &amp;ldquo;secret&amp;rdquo; note has recommended a strong campaign to &amp;ldquo;discredit&amp;rdquo; the information and a diplomatic offensive against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister&amp;rsquo;s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&amp;amp;AW last week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), &amp;ldquo;has enough potential to substantially harm India&amp;rsquo;s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.&amp;rdquo; This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>It underlined that the US government funded the 2017 report which estimated 40 million slaves in the world, including 25 million in the Asia-Pacific.<br />
</em><br />
WARNING that &ldquo;global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,&rdquo; the Intelligence Bureau in a &ldquo;secret&rdquo; note has recommended a strong campaign to &ldquo;discredit&rdquo; the information and a diplomatic offensive against it.<br />
<br />
The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&amp;AW last week.<br />
<br />
The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), &ldquo;has enough potential to substantially harm India&rsquo;s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.&rdquo; This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking.<br />
<br />
The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report &ldquo;Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage&rdquo; on September 19.<br />
<br />
Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery &ldquo;under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves &ldquo;made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.&rdquo; They produce &ldquo;some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear&rdquo; and they clean &ldquo;the buildings in which many of us live or work.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey &ldquo;to fund NGOs to focus on alleged &lsquo;slavery&rsquo; in South India&rsquo;s textile industry (40% of India&rsquo;s textile exports)&rdquo; while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK &ldquo;make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, &lsquo;Flawed Fabrics&rdquo;, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.<br />

India slammed for slavery, we need to counter: IB to Govt -Jay Mazoomdaar

-The Indian Express It underlined that the US government funded the 2017 report which estimated 40 million slaves in the world, including 25 million in the Asia-Pacific. WARNING that “global documentation on slavery is increasingly targeting India as home to the highest number of slaves in the world,” the Intelligence Bureau in a “secret” note has recommended a strong campaign to “discredit” the information and a diplomatic offensive against it. The Bureau submitted its note to, among others, the Prime Minister’s Office, National Security Advisor, the MEA, the Ministry of Labour and R&AW last week. The note cautions that the slavery documentation by International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations agency, and the Australia-based Walk Free Foundation (WFF), “has enough potential to substantially harm India’s image and exports and impact its efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 8.7.” This refers to eradicating forced and child labour, and human trafficking. The IB note was prepared within a week of the ILO-WFF releasing their latest report “Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage” on September 19. Since 2013, successive global slavery surveys has found India to be the country with the highest number of people working in modern slavery “under threat or coercion as domestic workers, on construction sites, in clandestine factories, on farms and fishing boats, in other sectors, and in the sex industry.” In many cases, says the latest ILO-WFF report, the products these modern slaves “made and the services they provided ended up in seemingly legitimate commercial channels.” They produce “some of the food we eat and the clothes we wear” and they clean “the buildings in which many of us live or work.” The IB note claims that European corporations use the ILO-WFF survey “to fund NGOs to focus on alleged ‘slavery’ in South India’s textile industry (40% of India’s textile exports)” while recent anti-slavery laws in the US and UK “make it mandatory for businesses to declare that none of their suppliers are violating slavery norms.” While the IB did not specify any in the note, the two prominent reports on alleged slavery in the Indian textile industry were released by Dutch NGOs. In October 2014, ‘Flawed Fabrics”, a report by India Committee of the Netherlands (ICN) and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations (SOMO), highlighted the alleged abuse of girls and women working in the South Indian textile industry.
