Dear Children, child labour is a very bad thing, it should
be abolished.
(But Sir, why do you keep one at your home)
You cannot categorize him as a child labour, but my
helping hand.
(Sir, Names are different but work is same)
Please keep quiet, small children should be provided with a good education.
(Why your helping hand is not going to school sir?)
I'm teaching him at home, small kids should be given
proper care, guidance and clothing.
(Yes sir that we can see in your helping hand-torn
Clothes-dirty face and long nails)
I repeat child labour should be completely abolished
from society.
(Sir, why don't you start the same right from your
home?)
Thank you, Prayash, for raising a voice against this social evil of child labour. In spite of a legal ban on child labour, small children can be seen working unorganised industrial sectors (including hazardous ones) eateries, tea stalls, shops and homes etc. They do not have any access to education or health facilities or nutritious food or hygienic living conditions. No dignity. No future. Thanks.
