Child labour is very harmful for young ones in order to their physical, moral and mental development. Though many reasons are there for child slavery or child trafficking but survey says that main cause of child labour are high level poverty and lack of access to good education. Development of the country is directly affected by this crime and child labour is a big reason of under-development of the country. A financially developed country provides all circumstances to its citizens that can help in making their new generations educated and healthy.

In India, many organizations are working for preventing this evil child labour but still it is growing in many illegal, unauthorized industries with some legal companies too. These organizations are of both types, hazardous and non hazardous. According to “The Childs Labour Prohibition and regulation act”, made in 1986, an age criterion for child in hazardous fields is fewer than 14 and non hazardous is under 17.

India is the 2nd highest populated country in the world with around 40% children under age 18 in which half of the total number are engaged in this crime of child labour. A huge number of poor parents are still not aware of the disadvantages of child labour that affects their children in terms of their education, heath, physical, mental and social growth.
