Read the passage given below.
In recent years India has seen manifold increase in crimes committed by minors. While
analysing the factors responsible for the spurt in crime rate the experts believe that the rural-
urban conflict is the core of these crimes in cities especially underage crimes, Largely, the rural
and semi-urban background of most of the offenders points to that direction. According to the
rescarchers these young people are not benefitting from the economic reforms in comparison
to the educated and professional counterparts in the cities. They feel neglected, frustrated and
distressed which leads to crime such as murder etc.
An increase in number of rural people migrating to cities in search of better life opportunities
however do not prepare them for the urban value system. The children are often neglected, as
both parents are working and unable to spend time with them. The children do not get the
attention and right values essential for upbringing.

The report 'Why Children Commit Offences' published by Delhi Commission for protection
of child Rights (DCPCR) in June 2015 focused on Children in conflict with the law in Delhi.
The report looks at multiple issues like the Socio-Economic profile of children with a criminal
record, the nature of offence that these children were accused of and analysed the factors that
push children towards deviant behaviour. The report highlighted the role of the family, the
community, the school, as well as the peer influence. The report after studying 182 children in
observation homes, special homes found that poverty is one of the biggest contributing factors
in children taken to crimes. Most of the children had undergone multiple deprivations with
low economic households, uneducated parents; disrupted families. The children were
dropouts and working independently to support their families.
A first step would be for the government to support those families that have poor economic
status. In addition, universal education among children is absolutely necessary to eradicate
crime among teens. However, only passing legislation is not enough Society has to ensure that
every family sends its children to school, rather than making them work at home or outside,
or simply neglecting them. The problem has to be nipped in the bud. A good family
atmosphere and proper counselling are needed at all stages for children belonging to
vulnerable social groups.
