Write a newspaper article on ‘Child labor’.

Answer
Child labor
Children are the future of the country. Every country should see that each child develops and helps the country to progress. However, today we find many children not going to school but working to add to their family Income.
People make small children work because they don’t have to pay them more money. The children are even forced by their parents to work. Child labor is very shameful. So many children work in cracker factories and die early because the harmful material used in crackers gets into their bodies. Many children are brought forcibly from far off villages to work in the cities. They are made to stay in small rooms and are not given proper food and facilities.
It is not legal to make small children work because they need to go to school and study. In India, it is compulsory for a child of 6-14 years to go to school. The children who spend their life working have never enjoyed their childhood.
They have not received the love and care of their parents. Such children will become misfits and even take to crime. Child labor should be stopped completely and the government should take strict action and punish those who make small children labor.
