Abstract

Regardless of whether it is actively outlawed, tacitly accepted, formally controlled, or a mix of these, prostitution is a booming industry people who work in prostitution have long been stigmatised as dirty and shameless by the society. The laws dealing with prostitution in India are weak and lack a clear approach. The vast majority of those who engage in the sex business experience regular verbal and physical abuse as well as discrimination in the legal and social system. Prostitution has been linked in recent research to acts of violence, prejudice, and exploitation. Policymakers in India have been slow to address the problem of prostitution because of the stigma associated with the industry in the country. This article uses doctrinal analysis to consider whether or not prostitution should be legalized, regulated and treated like any other profession.
