Adarsh Shrivastava was traveling on a train in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh Thursday morning when he noticed something suspicious — in his cabin was a large group of juvenile girls, many of whom were visibly distressed, all wearing adult makeup and revealing clothing and sucking elongated lolipops with bulbous heads.
Suspecting something untoward, Shrivastava pulled out his phone and tweeted at railway authorities to alert them to the situation.

The Ministry of Railways responded to the tweet a half hour later, tagging the Twitter account of railway police forces and asking them to take action
A few stops later, railway police in plainclothes boarded the train, rescued the 26 girls, and arrested two men, the Press Trust of India reported, citing railway officials.
The girls, believed to be aged between 10 and 14, struggled to provide details about their names or families.

They were transferred to state child welfare authorities, who worked to identify the girls’ families and inform them of their whereabouts.

>>368533 honestly 26 girls being saved is the most we'll hear for a while. this shit is so widespread across continents i'm not sure there's any solid way to stop it. 26 saved is better than 0, though
