Lindsay Lohan visited India to work on BBC documentary about child labor and women trafficking in last December. The actress has falsely claimed that she rescued 40 child workers. Lohan was discovered to have broken the country’s visa rules by traveling as a tourist whilst working for the BBC.

The “Mean Girls” actress made comments to Indian officials during the documentary that highlight the struggle of child laborers. Lohan updated her micro blogging site, Twitter, boasting that she had a role in a raid on a child labour sweatshop and claimed that the experience was life changing. The child star tweeted: “Over 40 children saved so far … Within one day’s work … This is what life is about … Doing THIS is a life worth living!!!”

Lohan later tweeted: “Focusing on celebrities and lies is so disconcerting, when we can be changing the world one child at a time … hope everyone can see that.” However, the activists leading the raids said that Lohan did not arrive in India until after the raids had taken place.

After Lohan’s comments she might not be able to visit India again after officials discovered that she had not applied for a work visa. As well as this, the activists have criticized Lohan’s comments and senior civil servants in New Delhi are studying the case to determine whether she will be added to the immigration blacklist.
