A whistleblower, related to BBA (Bachpan Bachao Andolan, former SACC or Global March), has challenged the authenticity of the organization. BBA fights against child labor and they rescue the children regularly.
The whistleblower has put forward the following quote:
“You might have an idea that some child labourers were freed from GAP Sweatshops a couple of years back by Bachpan Bachao Andolan in India. See:

I am enclosing here the audited balance sheet of the same NGO, Bachpan Bachao Andolna (Association for Voluntary Action), which clearly shows that they had taken money from GAP for the rehabilitation of those children. This audited balance sheet is for the period of 1st April 2009 to 31st March 2010. They had also taken a handsome amount of money just after the rescue of these children. They have also taken the money from Merck Ltd after exposing the case of child labour in Mica Mines of Jharkhand. This clearly shows that all the rescue operations done by BBA are basically to get CSR money from corporates.”
