An Analysis of The Issues and Challenges Related to The Status of Child Labour in India

Abstract

Children are considered to be the group in society that are most vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. He is viewed as the man's father. We ensure the future of the country by securing his present and ensuring that he has access to the fundamental freedoms required for growth and development. More than 10 million children in India are employed as child labourers in both industrial and domestic settings. These children are vulnerable to workplace physical and psychological abuse as well as working in dangerous factory environments for little to no pay. The kid labourer lacks the education, health, and strength necessary for their development. Such pursuits prevent the growth of the mind and personality. Lack of income for families, migration, social situations, etc. forces a youngster to be made to labour under abusive circumstances. The government has a responsibility to recognise the terrible condition of the child and to take action to protect their fundamental human rights. The implementation of constitutional protections, proper enactment of laws, the involvement of the judiciary and the public at large, as well as recognition of the abhorrent conditions of child labourers' workplaces, have all contributed to efforts to alleviate their predicament.
