Child Labour - A threat to modern society
" Child is meant to learn and not to earn"
Child labour is one of the most commonly found raw forms of illegal employment of children. People generally get misconceptions regarding child labour and child work.
A person below the age of 14 years is considered to be a child and is considered as juvenile by the courts all across the countries. Child labour is a form of employment in which people employ small children facing poverty, to work in harsh and dangerous environments.
Child work refers to the legally allowed work that can be done by a child. E.g. Playing games is what a child is considered to do, but small works like cooking, gardening, washing dishes, serving food in home, etc. are considered as legal activities. But even these legal activities if done under harsh environments with bonded labour is called child labour.
A child serving tea in tea stalls, Child working in firework factories, selling books on roads are considered to be different forms of Child labour.
Since it is a majorly debated topic across the globe, all countries are taking enough measures to prevent such activities. In India, "Child Labour Act - 1986" states that any child being employed as a bonded labour under compulsion or any other forms, is considered to be an offence and the person ( accused) who does this can be framed under this act with a minimum fine of Rs. 50,000 and also will have to serve a jail term for minimum 2 years under non-bailable section.
Even though the country enhances many measures it is upto the people and citizens who must enact accordingly.
Therefore, if you cant make a child learn atleast make his/her childhood bright rather than employing them.
