  • Abstract:
  • The issue of child labour remains a significant challenge in India, despite judicial interventions and legislative efforts. This abstract examines key Supreme Court cases, including M. C. Mehta Vs. State of Tamil Nadu, P. U. D. R. Vs. Union of India, Salal Hydro Project Vs. State of J & K, and Bandhua Mukti Morcha Vs. Union of India, highlighting the judiciary's role in safeguarding child welfare and promoting education. However, the persistence of child labour underscores the need for more robust mechanisms. This paper recommends stringent implementation of child labour laws, the application of compulsory education policies, specialized social development programs, awareness campaigns, amendments to social security legislation, population control measures, equal pay mandates, and enhanced healthcare services for children. Additionally, providing education and training opportunities for child workers during their free time is essential for breaking the cycle of exploitation. Ultimately, addressing child labour demands collaborative efforts between governmental agencies, NGOs, and society at large.
