Children are an asset to society. The welfare of the society is closely related to the welfare of the child. India has the largest workforce of children in the world. They are made to work as slaves in fields and factories in homes and in cottage industries. They are deprived of their childhood. Children are also self employed as shoeshine, milk boys, rags pickers and rickshaw pullers. They are overworked and underpaid. They are miss the benefits of education.
The evil of child labour is the product of poverty. Poor parents compel their children to work in order to supplement the family income. Due to insufficient education the poor unfortunately have a large number of children. Poverty and population growth go hand in hand. The beggars are never worried about their large family because every child becomes an earning hand at an early age.
Children work in units making beedis or polishing vessels, or matches. Crackers, rugs, and so on. They are exploited even when they are employed as domestic helpers. Can we blame their employers? No. A businessman works hard not to help society, but chiefly to make a profit. In order to cut his costs he employs cheap labour which are children. We cannot blame the poor also for their helplessness. It is true that the conditions in which they work is usually terrible. They inhale chemical fumes and metal dust. Soon they begin to gasp for breath.
Are we wandering why children must work and why they don't go to school? Doesn't the state do something to better their lot? Of course engaging children to do few kinds of dangerous jobs is unlawful. The child labour act is their to check the evil. The Supreme court judgement also addressed their problem in detail. But the factory owners prove smarter than any law of authority. They get their goods made by children in their cottages.
India is considered as a way to promote the rights of children. But all the plans to improve the lot of poor children exist on paper. But how can really we can help the poor children. The solution lies in a check on population growth and stricter laws to save children from torture.

Child labor is one of the serious offense in our country. If a child who is less than fourteen years of age is forced to work and is not given the rights to education, it is known as child labor. It is the basic right of any child to study and get an education. Employing any child in any type of work below fourteen years of age is strictly prohibited. The child should be exposed to education and exploring the world instead of forcing them to work.
