Whether child rights are protected by law properly in India?

Answer 1

In India the Child rights are covered by the Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act, 1986. According to this Act there exist Prohibition of Employment of Children in certain Occupations and Processes. It provides Regulation of Conditions of Work of Children. The Government is required to make rules for the health and safety of the child labour. It provides punishment for any contraventions of the provisions of the Act with regards to the child labour. How far this Act helps in protection of children is a matter of discussion. As such there exist no special laws for children living in domestic relationship & are covered by the regular enactments that relates to any other member of the domestic relationship. The penal law prevents any punishment for any offence committed by any child less then seven years of age & nothing is an offence which is done by a child above
Seven years of age and under twelve, who has not attained sufficient maturity of understanding to judge of the nature and consequences of his conduct on that occasion.
The Juvenile Justice Act, 1986 is an Act to provide for the care, protection, treatment, development and rehabilitation of neglected or delinquent juveniles and for the adjudication of certain matters relating to and disposition of, delinquent juveniles. This covers a boy who has not attained the age of sixteen years or a girl who has not attained the age of eighteen years. These are the few Acts or laws in relation to children in India.

Answer 2

The Governments in India can do no longer something precise except they are kicked in in the back of via some advertisement hobbies. If Importers insist that the exporter could teach comliance and so on. else they wont purchase, then purely something happens in Exporter's production facility, else lip service is what we get.
