A centre for learning, empowering and liberating people from bondages…
The ‘Barasat Unnayan Prostuti’ - (BUP) is predominantly a Right-based Humanitarian NGO initiated by a Social Activist Mr. Ranjit Dutta with the help of a group of dedicated friends after seeing the inhuman plight of hundreds of women along with their innocent children who are victims of human trafficking in person and circumstances, and how the society treats them even after when they’re rescued from such life threatening situations. Thus; ‘BUP’ was born out of dire necessity primarily to end human trafficking in person and ensure justice for the thousands of voiceless victims of servitude facing serious adverse circumstances with multiple layers of exploitations, gender-based violence, early marriages, economic and social exclusions etc. The ‘BUP’ was registered in the State of West Bengal, in the year 1993, and subsequently with the Ministry of Home Affairs, Govt. of India, to undertake necessary actions essentially to end these heinous human rights violations in the state and lift the communities out of such traps.
