Maiti Nepal works closely with the border police and the government to improve the interception of women and girls who are being lured and trafficked. Girl trafficking in Nepal has become a serious problem.  According to Maiti Nepal, 200,000 Nepali girls are forced to live like prostitutes in India today as a result of trafficking (Online).  Maiti Nepal has transit homes along the Nepali and Indian border.  Maiti Nepal’s staff assists the border police by interrogating every vulnerable girl and woman who crosses the border.  Questions may relate to where they are going, where they are from, how well they know their companions, and whether they are aware of the country’s girl trafficking problem.  Through this tactic, hundreds of girls have been rescued.
