# Meeraganj, Allahabad

Allahabad, the city of Sangam and the pious Kumbh Mela is where one of the most notorious red light areas of the country is. Meeraganj is a very dangerous place as it is not somewhat secluded and houses one of the biggest shopping centers of the city. In fact, it is a place where ruffians bring in minor rural girls and force them into prostitution or sell them off.

# Budhwar Peth, Pune

Now this is one strange place that we are talking about. If you want to shop electronics, books and exquisite curios while in Pune, people will inevitably name Budhwar Peth to you, one of the busiest shopping destination in the city. If you want to visit the richest Ganesh Temple in India, you’ll have to go to Budhwar Pet’s Dagadusheth Halwai Ganapati Temple; and, if you want to buy cheap or expensive sex, still you’ll have to visit the same place. Is this what we call an epitome of a hi-tech city?

# Shivdaspur, Varanasi

Varanasi, since times immemorial, has been famous for brothels and the elegant danseuses or what we know as the “tawaif culture”. However, similar situations can be noticed even now, in fact, at a more heinous scale. The place we’re talking about is about a 10 minutes journey from the Varanasi Railway Station and is one of the biggest red light areas in UP. Of the many NGOs working there, Gudia is one of the foremost which aids in saving children from getting into prostitution.

# Shonagachi, Kolkata

Here we come to the most dangerous, notorious and, of course, the largest red light areas of Asia. Situated along the banks of the Ganges in North Kolkata, Shonagachi is one place in Kolkata with a very high crime rate. Well, within half an hour’s distance from here, you’ll get at Premchand Boral Lane or the Haarkata lane where still the baiji culture (or the tawaif) culture is prevalent. It is the oldest red light area in Asia and infamous for its offensive criminal activities.

# G.B. Road, Delhi

G.B. Road or Garstin Bastion Road is again a commercial center of the city where you’ll get to see lots of old multi-storied buildings crumbling up side by side, the ground floor of which act as shops while the rest of the floors as brothels. These brothels are where girls and minors from the whole of India are sold.
