This book deals with the problem of child labour in India. The main cause of abnormal increase in the number of child labour now is the flow of migrants from the village to the urban areas in search of employment, as a result of disintegration of village economy and pervading poverty among the landless and working classes there.

A program should be initiated to improve and strengthen the position of womenproviding financial input by way of giving employment to enhance the family income which ultimately reduces the child Labour.
