&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Eminent citizens have petitioned PM Manmohan Singh asking him to ban all forms of child labour for those under 14 years of age. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Spearheaded by international child rights organisation `Save the Children&#039;, 45 eminent members of society have demanded that the Child Labour Act be amended to remove contradictions between the Child Labour Prevention and Regulation Act (CLPRA) and the Right to Education (RTE) Act that provides education as a right for every child. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;You cannot have one law that promises elementary education to all children and another one regulating child labour. Children cannot be both working and in school at the same time; let&#039;s ensure that it is only the latter,&amp;quot; Harpal Singh, board chair of `Save the Children&#039;, said. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The signatories included members of the newly reconstituted National Advisory Council Harsh Mander, NC Saxena and Anu Agha, Planning Commission members Arun Maira and Syeda Hameed, National Commission for Protection of Child Rights chairperson Shantha Sinha, AICC secretary and Congress MP Meenakshi Natarajan, Congress MP EMS Nachiappan and Oxfam CEO Nisha Agrawal. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The RTE Act, that came into force on April 1 this year, guarantees the right of every child between the ages of 6 and 14 to free and compulsory elementary education. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;According to estimates, there are close to 13 million children who are now engaged in child labour while unofficial estimates put this figure at over 40 million. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A statement by `Save the Children&#039; said that the CLPRA makes a distinction between hazardous and non-hazardous categories of work for children below 14. It said there cannot be any distinction between hazardous and non-hazardous labour for children below 14. &amp;quot;Child labour in any form is detrimental to the physical, mental and cognitive growth and development of the child. By allowing children below 14 to work, we stand morally diminished. We rob them of their childhood,&amp;quot; Harpal Singh said. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Approximately 70% children in child labour are in agriculture. Yet, the CLPRA does not take cognizance of this category of children. The law must be amended to include the millions of children engaged in child labour on agricultural farms, it said. &lt;/font&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Spearheaded by international child rights organisation `Save the Children&#039;, 45 eminent members of society have demanded that the Child Labour Act be amended to remove contradictions between the Child Labour Prevention and Regulation Act (CLPRA) and the Right to Education (RTE) Act that provides education as a right for every child. &lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The signatories included members of the newly reconstituted National Advisory Council Harsh Mander, NC Saxena and Anu Agha, Planning Commission members Arun Maira and Syeda Hameed, National Commission for Protection of Child Rights chairperson Shantha Sinha, AICC secretary and Congress MP Meenakshi Natarajan, Congress MP EMS Nachiappan and Oxfam CEO Nisha Agrawal. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The RTE Act, that came into force on April 1 this year, guarantees the right of every child between the ages of 6 and 14 to free and compulsory elementary education. &lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A statement by `Save the Children&#039; said that the CLPRA makes a distinction between hazardous and non-hazardous categories of work for children below 14.

&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Approximately 70% children in child labour are in agriculture.

Civil society urges PM to ban child labour

Eminent citizens have petitioned PM Manmohan Singh asking him to ban all forms of child labour for those under 14 years of age. Spearheaded by international child rights organisation `Save the Children', 45 eminent members of society have demanded that the Child Labour Act be amended to remove contradictions between the Child Labour Prevention and Regulation Act (CLPRA) and the Right to Education (RTE) Act that provides education as a right for every child. "You cannot have one law that promises elementary education to all children and another one regulating child labour. Children cannot be both working and in school at the same time; let's ensure that it is only the latter," Harpal Singh, board chair of `Save the Children', said. The signatories included members of the newly reconstituted National Advisory Council Harsh Mander, NC Saxena and Anu Agha, Planning Commission members Arun Maira and Syeda Hameed, National Commission for Protection of Child Rights chairperson Shantha Sinha, AICC secretary and Congress MP Meenakshi Natarajan, Congress MP EMS Nachiappan and Oxfam CEO Nisha Agrawal. The RTE Act, that came into force on April 1 this year, guarantees the right of every child between the ages of 6 and 14 to free and compulsory elementary education. According to estimates, there are close to 13 million children who are now engaged in child labour while unofficial estimates put this figure at over 40 million. A statement by `Save the Children' said that the CLPRA makes a distinction between hazardous and non-hazardous categories of work for children below 14. It said there cannot be any distinction between hazardous and non-hazardous labour for children below 14. "Child labour in any form is detrimental to the physical, mental and cognitive growth and development of the child. By allowing children below 14 to work, we stand morally diminished. We rob them of their childhood," Harpal Singh said. Approximately 70% children in child labour are in agriculture. Yet, the CLPRA does not take cognizance of this category of children. The law must be amended to include the millions of children engaged in child labour on agricultural farms, it said.
