CHILD LABOUR
refers to the employment of children at regular and sustained labour. This practice is considered exploitative by many international organizations
and is illegal in many countries.
Child labour was employed to varying extents through most of history, but entered public dispute with the advent of universal schooling, with changes in working conditions during the industrial revolution, and with the emergence of the concepts of workers' and children's rights.
The problem of child labour exploitation is a major challenge to the progress of developing countries. Children work at the cost of their right to education which leaves them permanently trapped in the poverty cycle, sadly without the education and literacy required for better-paying jobs. This is particularly serious in India as it tops the list with the highest number of child laborers in the world.
The 2001 national census of India estimated the total number of child labour, aged 5–14, to be at 17 million. Out of the 12.6 million, 0.12 million engages in hazardous job. However, according to informal labour force statistics, the problem seems to be more severe than reflected.
Child labour is estimated to be as large as 60 million in India, as many children are "hidden workers" working in homes or in the underground economy.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights
In 1948, the UN General
Assembly set down a Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Ask before you buy:
Firecrackers, cigarettes and more such products are made in sweatshops in India
that employ children in extremely harmful working conditions. Next time u buy
something read the label in detail and make a smart choice!
Influence Awareness:
Half the people who are being exploited don’t even know about the rights the
constitution provides them with. So, start by educating your friends!
Respect differences:
Instead of judging your next door neighbour because of his religion or
community, try getting to know him/her instead and listening to his view!
Address people on
merit, not demographics: When you need to judge someone, consider their skills
and their personality – not from they come or their skill or gender.
Drop the
attitude: If you someone who is being exploited, don’t walk on. Stop, talk to
the victim , offer assistance and get help from a local NGO.
