Suresh (right), now a partner working with JVI, aided in freeing his family and 159 other people from bonded labor. His son (left) is the first generation in his family to grow up free from slavery.
We first met Suresh in 2014, secretly, on a dusty road in Bihar, India where he had slipped away from his work as a bonded laborer in an agricultural facility to bravely share his story of abuse and oppression. Shortly thereafter, thanks to the vigilance of Justice Hub partners working closely with government officials, Suresh and 159 others were freed from multi-generational agricultural slavery.
