Sins of the billion dollar plastic surgery Industry

How many of us know that India is in the top-5 of nations for cosmetic surgical and non-surgical procedures. Face plastic surgery, Liposuction , breast augmentation, hair transplant are some of the huge revenue generating businesses in India.

Is it something to feel proud about? I was shocked to read the news “Nepali women are being 'skinned' to make rich Indians beautiful.”

It’s really scared to know that the billion dollar plastic surgery industry in India and the world is thriving on the trafficking and 'skinning' of young girls from Nepal. This latest story exclusively on YKA reveals the horrifying truth about what goes into making rich Indians beautiful.

The author, YKA's Soma Basu spoke not only with those who deal in this 'skin trafficking', but also with the victims who were trafficked to Mumbai, drugged, their skin surgically removed and sold for a handsome amount. These women are often then forced into sex work as a means to make ends meet. 

This story is an eye-opener, and I strongly request you to read it. Terrifying and intolerable 😡

Use social media responsibly

Just happend to see a report done by thinktank Demo researchers, claiming that more than 10,000 racists and abusive tweets are being tweeted everyday. That is approximately about 7 hurt-ful messages every minute!

Everyone can type and share whatever they want on their social media because – it is called as ""the freedom of speech"", correct? But it's also important for those people to realize that they have no rights to demean the ‘freedom of speech’ by sharing useless hatred.

I really don't understand, What these keyboard warriors are trying to achieve by posting such absurd comments and forwards?

Let's be responsible in handling our social media.
