Bride Traﬃcking is so deep rooted in society that providing accurate ﬁgures is extremely diﬃcult since it is often impossible to track down and trace individual incidents of Bride Traﬃcking. According to the author, who has conducted a case study with ﬁfty women from the State of Haryana, inter-country traﬃcking for the purpose of marriage is widespread in India. Traﬃcked women are subjected to a slew of atrocities, including being raped in transit and then raped by their husbands and other male family members. Apart from that, they face domestic violence, are treated worse than slaves and are frequently traﬃcked multiple times. Poverty, female foeticide, female infanticide, illiteracy, dowry and other factors can all contribute to traﬃcking. In this paper, the author will discuss Bride Traﬃcking in general, the reasons for it, the human rights violations that these traﬃcked brides face and the potential solutions to this illicit trade.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Bride Traﬃcking</kwd><kwd>human traﬃcking</kwd><kwd>female foeticide</kwd><kwd>traﬃcking for marriage</kwd><kwd>slavery</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Ahlawat N.
