A first-ever health clinic for sex workers and their families has been opened in Delhi's red-light area, G B Road, with facilities for routine check-ups and treatment.
The clinic was inaugurated on Sunday. It has been started in a part of a non-functional school by some civil society groups.
Shalini (name changed), a sex worker, said she hopes the facility will help her fight the stigma that she faces in visiting clinics in other parts of the city.
