Offences Against the Human Body
(1) Recruiting/transporting/harbouring/transferring/receiving a person for exploitation, using threats, force, coercion, abduction, fraud/deception, abuse of power, or inducement (including payments) to obtain the consent of whoever controls that person, is "trafficking". "Exploitation" includes physical/sexual exploitation, slavery-like practices, servitude, forced begging, or forced organ removal - and the victim's own consent is legally irrelevant to whether trafficking occurred. (2)-(7) Punishment ranges from 7 years to life imprisonment, scaling up sharply for multiple victims, child victims, repeat child-trafficking convictions, or involvement of a public servant/police officer (both of which trigger mandatory full-life imprisonment).
This is India's comprehensive general anti-trafficking provision - the direct replacement for old IPC Sections 370 and 370A - and it establishes that a trafficking VICTIM'S consent is legally irrelevant, since traffickers often use deception or manipulation to obtain a form of "consent" that shouldn't excuse the crime.
This is why a trafficking victim's initial apparent "agreement" to travel or take a job (later found to be a front for exploitation) doesn't provide any legal defence to the trafficker - the law explicitly disregards victim consent for this offence, recognising how deception and coercion can produce apparent but meaningless consent.
