Child labour refers to work that deprives children of their childhood and interferes with their education. In India, child labour is rampant in industries like bidi making, carpet making, construction, domestic work, and farming. Poverty is a major cause of child labour, as families rely on children's wages for survival. Children who work face health issues, lost education opportunities, and abuse. Various organizations in India are working to raise awareness, provide aid to vulnerable children and their families, and push for stronger laws against child labour.
