CHILD LABOUR
INDIAN IS ONE GIFTED WITH HIGHEST ENDURANCE POWER EVER POSSESED BY MAN ON EARTH.WELL,THIS IS THE IMAGE OF AN INDIAN ANY WHERE IN THE WORLD TODAY.
IT IS VERY UNFORTUNATE THAT EVEN AFTER 50 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE,WE AS A NATION HAVE MOVED AHEAD AT A SNAIL'S SPEED,WHILE OTHER COUNTRIES HAVE PROGRESSED IN LEAPS AND BOUNDS.WHAT IS THE REASON BEHIND THE STAGNANCY?
THOUGH INDIA HAS CELEBRATED HER GOLDEN JUBILEE YEAR IN1997,IT IS STILL HAVING SO MANY PROBLEMS WHICH ARE CAUGHT AS IF BY LEACHES TO A BUFFALO.THE PROMINENT AMONG THEM IS THE PROBLEM OF CHILD LABOUR.
IT IS ESTIMATED THAT OVER A MILLION CHID LABURS WORK IN INDIA.WELL,IT IS APROBLEM.THEN WHAT'S THE SOLUTION?
POVERTY IS ASOCIO ECONOMIC PHENOMENON WHICH DEFIES ANY PRECISE DEFINITION;ITS CONCEPT AND CONTENT VARIES FROM COUNTRY TO COUNTRY.THE 6TH FIVE YEAR PLAN(1980-85)INDICATED THAT 50.7%OF THE RURAL POPULATION AND ABOUT40% OF THE URBAN POPULATION WAS LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE.AND IN THE 1989-90 CALCULATIONS THE POPULATION LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE WAS 28.2% FROM RURAL AREAS AND 14.3% FROM URBAN AREAS.WITH A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF POPULATION LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE ,PEOPLE OF THIS CATEGORY ARE NOT IN A POSITION OF EDUCATING THEIR CHILDREN.RATHER THEY HAVE TO SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO WORK FOR EARNING MONEY.AS THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN NEED OF LABOURS LOOK FOR THOSE WHO COULD BE PAID LESS FOR THE SAME WORK, GO FOR THE CHILD LABOURS.AS ARESULT OF THIS THING,THERE IS A DEMAND FOR THOSE.
KEEPING ALL THESE POINTS IN VIEW,THE GOVT. SHOULD ADOPT SOME EFFECTIVE PREVENTIVE MEASURES SO THAT THIS PROBLEM CAN BE ATLEAST MINIMISED.
WE AS EDUCATED INDIVIDUALS NEED TO LIBERATE THESE CHILD LABOURS FROM THE CAGES OF SLAVERY AT THE AGE OF EDUCATION BY EDUCATING THER PARENTS AND ADOPTING THE REQUIRED MEASURES FOR FRUITFUL RESULTS.
IN THIS WAY IF EVERY INDIVIDUAL TAKES THE PREVENTIVE MEASURES TO CURB THE WORST IMAGE OF INDIA IN REST OF THE WORLD,INDIA WOULD BE PROUD OF HER CHILDREN AND WE SHALL BE PROUD OF BEING AN INDIAN.
