“I visited IT service centres in India and found two of the three danger signals: sex reactive young people who are relatively wealthy and independent. I was surprised to find most of them lived alone, away from their family,” says Sir Mark.

Yes, I agree with the views expressed in this piece. Some girls working in call centers are into high-class prostitution on a part-time basis. The idea of earning quick bucks, stress at work (night shifts), and anonymity are driving them towards this. It is already happening in places like Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi, Bombay, Kolkata, and Pune. It is an organized business. Girls get paid anything between 60,000 to 1,20,000 for working 15 days. I have insider information on this business. Most of the girls insist on using condoms, the clients are rich, and it is carried out discreetly.
