Here is a report from the UN on forced criminality.

https://www.unodc.org/roseap/uploads/documents/Publications/...

The report is for Southeast Asia, but the same may apply for India too.

Indian Subcontinent is geographically, culturally, and demographically extremely different from Southeast Asia.

So the underlying/fundamental UN doctrine and principles should somehow be different?

You should still be able to glean the overall UN position on similar practices.

Whether you intended or not; your comment came across slightly xenophobic. 2 out of 3 main points (UN stance, forced criminality) are on point and shouldn't change based on the geographic region. Your comment read as if you were offended that the same pointsfor SE Asia could ever apply to India.

I hope not though. Either way it's important to acknowledge higher(meta) level perspectives for what they actually say, not who they're about.

Thank you.
