Police in Bihar carried out a rescue operation that freed seven minor girls from a brick kiln where they had been trafficked and forced to work. The girls, aged between 12 and 16, were found in deplorable conditions and were immediately taken to a local shelter for medical and psychological care. Authorities said the trafficking ring had been operating in the region for several months, exploiting vulnerable families. The rescued girls are now under the care of child protection services, and investigators are tracing the network responsible for their abduction. The incident has prompted a review of security measures at brick kilns across the state.
