There are many websites on the Internet offering escort services. 1.) Are they legal and is it safe for clients to whom they cater? 2.) Are there any licenses or any other legal documents issued to them? 3.) Are there any escort agencies which are legal and their websites can be found on the net? Do their businesses have any certificates? 4.) To what extent their services are legal if they mention that their services include only companionship and friendship & if the client has sexual intercourse with the woman providing the service, then that is purely personal due to mutual consent and not a part of the services of the agency, will the client still be guilty of availing services of prostitution? 5.) If the client or the agent gets an NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the Police Department, then is it legal to hire the services of the escort agency? 6.) Though prostitution in India is not completely illegal, a number of related activities like pimping, owning and managing a brothel, soliciting in public etc. are illegal. In that case, prostitution is as good as being almost completely illegal because there is no method left for the client to contact the prostitute and vice-versa. If there is, then pls tell me that in which legal way can prostitution exist as they cannot publish their phone numbers on the newspaper, Internet or any other media and if they have sexual intercourse at home then Policemen would say that the house is being run as a brothel.
