Child labour is a social evil that needs joint effort to eradicate it


It is the increasing level of poverty that has lead to the practice of child labour. The need has aroused out of the lack of financial assistance to the poor and backward class people. In this regard, we all should come forward to understand their need and provide them maximum amount of help. This should not be just another deed of donation; rather, it needs to be an act aimed at improving the lifestyle of people. Child labor is a social evil that has to be eradicated from the society. Just think how it would feel on seeing a small child of 4 or 5 years begging on streets or a child of 10 years working in a house and factory.

It is not that the child labour in India would eradicate with the effort of one individual. In fact, it has to be joint effort by everyone, so that this problem should not remain. Despite of the rule that children below 14 years are not allowed to work as a child labour. It is the financial problem in the poor families that lead them to work at such a tender age, when they should study. On willing to donate, anyone can contact various non profit organizations that work for the benefit of poor children. With the donated money, these organization people would buy books, food items, stationary material and other necessary things, so as to save them from practicing child labour. In short, donations from the general public would help will save poor children from the cruelty of child labor.
