Answer

The Ministry of Women and Child Development has launched #Childline1098 childline contest to spread awareness on human trafficking. 


Human trafficking is the trade of humans for the purpose of forced labour, sexual slavery, or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others.


 



The WCD Ministry has invited people to share images of the logo of Childline 1098, the nationwide emergency helpline for children in distress, that they spot at unique locations and send it with a tagline to win a cash price, in a bid to spread awareness on trafficking.


The contest has been organised to mark 'World Day against Trafficking in Persons' on July 30.



The Childline has been operating at 450 locations, including 76 key railway stations, across the country.

Most successful companies, institutions and organizations have mission statements. Most individuals don't. As the Chief Executive Officer of your own life in the knowledge era, you need a laser like focus in your vision. You need a mission and a mission statement describing how you want to live, not just what you want to own; defining the person you want to become, not just the title you want to see on your door; outlining the knowledge you will receive, not just the degree you'll earn or your next promotion.

I began the process this way : "To be aware of the uniqueness of my associates, clients, friends and family, and to treat that uniqueness with loving concern. I was created to lead myself and others to understand win­win relationships and how to use them to improve the lives of all persons with whom I come into contact."
