million were claimed to be working
in the agriculture sector. 73% of them were said
to be boys

13. CONTRADICTIONS

14. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
 GOVERNMENT notification of october
10th states that no CHILD under the age
of 14 must be employed in the domestic
& hospitality sector
 WE welcomes this notification as a
positive step..
BUT…..

16. CAUSES
 30% of our country’s total population is leading life below the
poverty-line, in which the people are deprived of
basic necessities of life like clothing, shelter, food,
education and medication, the children of these people
will be forced to become Labourers' or workers in order to
survive.
 Our people are not aware of the importance of education.
Class-based education system is another reason for
increasing child Labour as a result, child Labour is increase
in rural areas.
 The government has not put its laws into practice to stop
child Labour in our country that’s why child labour is
increasing day by day.

17. SOLUTION
 Awareness must be raised and parents
should pay attention to the education of
their children.
 Child Labour Laws should be strictly put
into practice

18.  If we want success then we have to act upon these
principles and then our country can easily get rid of this
problem.
 We have to distribute the education free of cost, give flame
to the candle of
education and distribute the light of
knowledge among the people as someone SAID that
“get knowledge and distribute among others.”
 Clearly define “what is not acceptable” in labour, criminal,
or children’s rights or other laws.

19.  Consider and address difficulties of enforcement.
 Raise awareness among stakeholders of the specific
risks [of working street girls]; thus help raise the issue
higher on the political agenda.
 Gradually prepare the children for social / family
integration.
 Involve government entities from the beginning, giving
them ownership.
 Mobilize children and young people; conveying the
message to the public (families, community and
institutions) and also the business community.
 Respect and adapt to the socio-economic and cultural

school going age for the survival of there
families and to full fill the basic
necessities.
