Acting on a tip-off, the police conducted a surprise raid on the hotel near Biju Nagar and rescued the girls, besides seizing many objectionable items.
A similar sex racket was busted at Nahanjara village under Singla police limits in Balasore district on June 14.
Following the raid, four persons, including a girl and the owner of the house, were taken into custody.
