Abstract

Child labour a great penance to the society. Every nation links its future with the present status of its children. Individual potential productive capabilities of these children are lost as they have to forgo their educational opportunities for the sake of gainful employment in most exploitative conditions out of economic distress. Although a great effort is made by different international organizations to eliminate child labour across the world and many countries have adopted legislation to prohibit child labour; nonetheless child labour is widespread throughout the world. It is not easy task for low income countries to achieve banning child labour because of low family income and lack of educational facilities.
