The Indian Government and Actions Against Child Labor
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the Indian Government’s actions against child labor and other issues in relation to international pressure and trade. Within the last decade, international pressure has been placed upon developing countries to eliminate child labor. Depending upon the source, it has been reported that there are between 11 and 60 million children being exploited as underpaid labor in India. India, in response to international demand, has begun the “world’s largest child labor elimination program” which includes national and international funding, organizational development and educational programs in order to eliminate child labor and rehabilitate those children taken out of exploitative situations. While the steps taken by the Indian Government are positive in regards to the elimination of child labor, controversy still exists in regards to India, as a developing country, remaining competitive within the international market place which is considerably easier when child labor wages are in place over adult wages. Tutorial language is inserted throughout the text in square brackets for instructional purposes.
