Evelien Holsken who is a co-founder of the 'Free A Girl' movement has been repeatedly denied a visa to India. Her NGO has been known for doing some exceptional work for the welfare of trafficked children and women in India.

It further focuses on creating awareness about the problem of child prostitution and the impunity of offenders of child prostitution and mobilizing the support of the local society to fight against this crime for a sustainable change so that child prostitution in India becomes a problem of the past.

Mallika Sherawat is also the brand ambassador of the 'School for Justice', a unique programme by Free-A-Girl supporting girls that have been rescued from brothels to lead the way in changing the system by providing them with education, training, and support in order to help them become lawyers and work within the judicial system. 

Says Mallika, "I feel very strongly about this issue and felt the urge to seek help in order to get support from the government and be granted Visa allowance to the co-founder who has been tirelessly working for the benefit of Indian children and women. Sushma Swaraj ji has always addressed issues such as these and I am hoping to seek a positive response from her."

The actor who voices a firm opinion on women's rights and causes is known for her active involvement in philanthropic activities over the years. She also recently featured in a documentary on child trafficking in India titled 'India's Achilles Heel', which has been made by the volunteers of the 'Free A Girl Movement'.
