Sex workers bearing the brunt of the demonetisation move

Muzaffarpur: Sex workers in Bihar’s largest red light area have been hit hard by the Centre’s demonetisation policy.

Sex workers at “Chaturbhuj Sthan” in Muzaffarpur are fighting for survival. The are paid only in cash and are hardly getting any customers after the scrapping of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes.

Many of them belong to West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Nepal and Jharkhand. They say they are finding it hard to feed their kids.

Others working at the kothas are also bearing the brunt of the demonetisation move.
