World Day Against Child Labour is observed on 12 June every year around the world. The day aims to spread awareness about the illegal practice of child labour that still prevails. The objective of this day is also to spread awareness to eradicate it completely across the globe.
Child labour still exists and children, mostly from poor families, are forced to work in hazardous conditions. Such children are deprived of living their childhood while many also miss the opportunity of attending schools.
