Each year over 40,000 Indian children are forced into back-breaking and soul destroying labour -- from brick kilns to brothels. Just days ago an incredible story emerged of seven children who were rescued from breathing poisonous fumes while working for a goldsmith. Unfortunately, this story is all too common in our country, but we finally have an opportunity to crackdown on child labour in India.

Right now, a new law to prohibit child labour is in front of Parliament that would make it illegal to employ a child under the age of 14. But the proposed text doesn’t yet cover key areas like child trafficking and looking after children who’ve been rescued from their often dangerous labour. We’ve got a crucial window in the next 24 hours to flood the government consultation with demands to strengthen and then pass a strong law.

Let's raise our voices to speak for those who can't, and ensure that the India of tomorrow is built by children who’ve spent their days getting educated, not exploited in dangerous work conditions. Send a message right now directly to the government before the consultation closes tomorrow and then share it with others.
