Today’s child is tomorrow’s citizen. This is a universally accepted truth. But it is also a universal fact that today’s child forms an important section of the labor force in all sectors of employment in all the less developed and developing economics. Child labor has a long history in India, dating back centuries. The exploitation of children for labor can be traced to both traditional and colonial periods. Here's a brief overview of the history of child labor in India. Government has accordingly been taking proactive steps to tackle this problem through strict enforcement of legislative provisions along with simultaneous rehabilitative measures. State Governments, which are the appropriate implementing authorities, have been conducting regular inspections and raids to detect cases of violations. Since poverty is the root cause of this problem, and enforcement alone cannot help solve it, Government has been laying a lot of emphasis on the rehabilitation of these children and on improving the economic conditions of their families.
