Elimination of Child Labour Education Department for facilitating enrollment of children passing out of special schools; finalization of craft and pre-vocational training module for children enrolled in special schools; ensuring inspection of the Child Labour Projects and sending periodic inspection reports to the Ministry of Labour and Employment, etc. The Indus Child Labour Project operational in Aligarh, Allahabad, Ferozabad, Kanpur and Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh recognizes that working children belong to specific sections of the population that continue to be marginalized. Its goal is to target marginalized populations of children in selected areas and to improve their attendance, performance and retention in the education system. The key strategies of the programme are enrolment in public elementary education, withdrawal from work and provision of transitional education, strengthening vocational training, strengthening public education of child workers and social mobilization. The beneficiaries are identified young child workers (5-8 years) who will be directly enrolled in regular schools; older child workers (9-13 years), who will be provided with transitional education and support services; adolescent workers (14-17 years) who will be provided vocational training; and parents of working children will be organized into self help groups (SHGs) and later provided with skills for additional income generation. International Programme for the Elimination of Child Labour (IPEC) has the objectives to enhance the capability of ILO constituents and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) to design, implement and evaluate programmes for child labour elimination; to identify interventions at community and national levels which can serve as models for replication; and create awareness and social mobilization for securing elimination of child labour.

Abstract : The study explored the causes of child labour and suggested an action plan for implementation and elimination of child labour. Based on the situation of child labour in Kurnool district of Andhra Pradesh, it was observed that poverty, traditions like low value for female education and early marriages, preference for child labour by employers, and short-comings of the education system were numerous factors pulling children into the labour market. Analysis of the situation revealed that the following preventive measures could be adopted to eliminate child labour : (i) economic development and better income distribution; (ii) social security and assistance policy; (iii) discouragement of children from entering employment; (iv) encouraging technical advancement; and (v) effective enforcement of child labour laws. As it is impossible to eliminate child labour totally, it was also suggested that a rehabilitative approach should be adopted to minimise any deleterious 31 <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Abstracts</strong> on Child Labour, Labour and Women Labour 1998 - 2009
Elimination of Child Labour effects from it, through the provision of basic health, education and other services. Labour legislations must be accompanied by a wide range of measures encompassing employment and income generation projects, reforms, and expansion in education to eradicate child labour. It suggested that families below the poverty line should be selected for receiving benefits under Poverty Alleviation Programmes and accredited VOs must be involved to ensure proper functioning of the programme. Parents should be exposed to the benefits of education, and free uniforms and text books, along with mid-day meals should be provided to all school children. Vocational education for children should also be introduced. Rural development programmes can be dovetailed with women and child welfare and girl child schemes. Vijaya Kumar, S. (2003).

Abstract : In the prevailing scenario, many children from poor families in rural and urban areas do not go to school because their labour is essential to supplement as well as to substitute their family income. The study attempted to investigate the possible economic and social consequences that may affect (positively and negatively) the industries where child labour has to be replaced by adult workers. Data was collected by interviewing child labour from different industries namely cotton industry, leather industry, automobile workshops and beedi industry, their parents, and employers in Andhra Pradesh. In Andhra Pradesh, as per official statistics, there were 16,61,940 child labourers in the age group 7 to 14 years. Autonagar is one of the biggest and well organized automobile industry units which has 26 automobile workshops regulated by the Umbrella Body called Automobile Technicians Association (ATA). In 2001, there were about 2403 child labourers but at the time of visit there were only 446 child labourers working in different shops. These children worked for 6 hours and thereafter attended the education program at Bal Vikas Kendra at Autonagar which was financially supported and sponsored by ATA. In the leather industry, child labour was predominantly employed in slaughter houses, followed by tanneries and footwear units. The nature of jobs they were involved in slaughter houses and tanneries were unhygienic and hazardous. Leather products manufacturing units do not have child labour, but girls in the age group of 16 years and above worked there. In the unorganized units, mostly entire families were involved. In the cotton ginning industry, labour belonging 32 <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Abstracts</strong> on Child Labour, Labour and Women Labour 1998 - 2009
