Call of cash

Illustration: Gaurav SoodChandigarh is emerging as the hub of sex trade in the region. The stereotypical image of sex workers being coerced into prostitution has undergone a change. Now, more and more young, educated urban women are joining this age-old profession. While some of them are lured into this business, there are many who are joining it willingly. Sanjay Sharma reports.

Chandigarh, which till a few years ago held on to middle class values, is fast emerging as a new sex destination. Considered a regional hub of sex trade, the city has recorded an unprecedented rise in this business.
