Abstract
The exercise of manual foraging in India dates to ancient times. This paper attempts to draw attention to the distress reaction of human faces who works to scavenge human faeces, still in this 21st Century. The paper explores the willful breach of fundamental and human rights met out to manual scavenging humans in India while various central and state legislations for the abolition and protection of manual scavengers also exists in parallel. The ineffable plights of Manual foraging in their daily life is deliberated by the author so as to conclude with the suggestive legal reforms more truly to be implemented by authorities in the government to end the Manual Scavenging trade from the society.
