Answer:

1) Escort services are very legal in India

2) If Escort services are legal in India then they also have the right to be online

Explanation:

Prostitution is legal in India.

According to an article, commercial sex operations is the oldest profession in India.  So in a rather intricate twist, whilst prostitution is legal, its related activities are not. Activities such as pimping, owning, and managing a brothel is illegal.

Some of the major cities where these related activities take place are Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata, and they are operational in very large numbers.

The act which regulates such activities (that is prostitution and its ancillary activities) and defines the parameters under which they may be practiced is the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act or ITPA.

The act prohibits prostitutes from advertising themselves. The website uses the word escort, instead of prostitutes also, they have removed from their contact page a physical location except for a phone number and an email. So even if they can be proven to have broken any laws, it may be difficult to trace them.

In addition, given that the "escorts" didn't give out their number, and it cannot be proven from the website that they are carrying out their activities within locations that are very close to public places, the legal action against them may be limited if not impossible.

Cheers

What potential conflict of interest is presented by a lawmaker accepting an
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

A term used to describe the situation in which a public official or fiduciary who, contrary to the obligation and absolute duty to act for the benefit of the public or a designated individual, exploits the relationship for personal benefit, typically pecuniary.

In certain relationships, individuals or the general public place their trust and confidence in someone to act in their best interests. When an individual has the responsibility to represent another person—whether as administrator, attorney, executor, government official, or trustee—a clash between professional obligations and personal interests arises if the individual tries to perform that duty while at the same time trying to achieve personal gain. The appearance of a conflict of interest is present if there is a potential for the personal interests of an individual to clash with fiduciary duties, such as when a client has his or her attorney commence an action against a company in which the attorney is the majority stockholder.

Incompatibility of professional duties and personal interests has led Congress and many state legislatures to enact statutes defining conduct that constitutes a conflict of interest and specifying the sanctions for violations. A member of a profession who has been involved in a conflict of interest might be subject to disciplinary proceedings before the body that granted permission to practice that profession.
