Subject- Problem of Child Labor in Nagpur
Dear Sir,
Respectfully, I am a responsible Indian citizen and I am writing to your office to draw your kind attention on the problem of child labor at construction sites in our city.
You know, the Government has started a lot of construction work in our area and I have seen in many areas where young children (age 10 to 12 years) are working which are against the laws of the country. Yesterday, I came across a 10 year old boy at a construction site, near my house. I asked him about his family, school and he had nothing to answer. The problem of the child has become a serious issue in India and is spoiling the lives of thousands of children. Although, there are many child labor laws in our country, but their implementation and proper check & balance are the main problems. This problem is causing adverse effects on the development, growth and indeed, on the progress of our nation.
Minimum wages are given to the millions of underage children (boys and girls) who are forced to work in industries, factories, shops, workshops, etc. If we want to achieve progress, development, and advancement in this country then skilled manpower should work rather than young boys and girls.
As this is a serious issue in this country, I felt that it is my responsibility to convey this to your office so that your Government may take necessary actions to stop this child labor in our area. I am hopeful that you will personally look into this matter and will take strict action against the offenders.
Thank you for your kind attention.
Yours faithfully,
Madhav / Madhavi Shastri,

I hope this will help you.

Subject: Unrelenting Problem of Child Labour in India
Dear Sir:
I am writing to your good-self to express my deep anguish over the unrelenting problem of child labour in our country. I feel a little attention of yours towards the problem will be enough to initiate new campaign in eradicating the problem.
I recently saw a 10 year old boy working at a construction site near my house. I feel strict action needs to be taken the offenders of child labor laws. The problem of child labour is quite widespread across India. In spite of many anti-child labour laws, the problem continues to spoil the lives of thousands of children. The adverse effects of this problem affect the growth, development, and progress of our nation.
Not only millions of underage children are forced to work in factories, shops, glass-blowing industry, workshops, etc, they are paid the minimum of wages. According to Census data, there are over 82 lakh child labourers (aged between 5 – 14 years) in India. Our country needs more and more skilled manpower to achieve the objectives of growth, development and advancement. With so many millions of children working menial jobs, without education, how can India achieve her goals?
I appeal to the Government to take some proactive and stringent measures to stop this problem of child labour and must ensure education for them. Undoubtedly there are many laws against child labour, however their poor implementation is responsible for the continuation of the problem. I hope your good self will definitely take some proactive measures in this regard.
Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Madhavi Shastri
