Child labour 
Children are the future of the nation. They are flowers of our national garden. It is our duty to protect 
these flowers. Child labour is a socio-economic problem. Child labour is not a new phenomenon in India. 
From ancient times, children were required to do some work either at home or in the field along with 
their parents. Child labour has been defined as any work done by the children in order to economically 
benefits their family or themselves directly or indirectly, at the cost of their physical, mental or social 
development. Child is the loveliest creation of nature. But it is the circumstances which force them to 
hard labour. They have to earn livelihood from early childhood, stopping their mental development. The 
nation suffers a net loss of their capacity as mature adults. Child labour is a global problem. It is more 
common in underdeveloped countries. Child labour, by and large, is a problem of poor and destitute 
families, where parents cannot afford education of their children. They have to depend on the earning 
of their children. The prevalence of child labour is a blot on society. It is a national disgrace that millions 
of children in this country have to spend a major part of their daily routine in hazardous works. The 
problem of child labour in India is the result of traditional attitudes, urbanisation, industrialisation, 
migration, lack of education, etc. There are several constitutional and legal provisions to protect working 
children. At present there are 14 major acts and laws that provide legal protection to the working 
children. Notwithstanding, the evils of child labour is on the increase. The biggest cause behind its 
spread is poverty. It cannot be completely eradicated from society unless its root cause is not addressed. 
Child labour perpetuates poverty. 
Child labour is economically unsound, psychologically disastrous and ethically wrong. It should be strictly 
banned. The general improvement in socio-economic conditions of people will result in gradual 
elimination of child labour.

used for inappropriate purposes. Phones should definitely be allowed in school. Most cell phones have 
calendars on them, so students can put the due date of a test that is coming up. In addition, students 
could record their teacher giving a lecture. Also, parents and students rely on their cell phone s to get in 
contact with each other. Parents may need to get in contact with their children because of a family 
emergency such as, a death in the family or an accident that has happened. If parents are able to call or 
text their children at school, then it would be less likely chance that a mix-up would occur relaying 
messages.
