This paper talks about Campaign Against Child Labour’s (CACL) advocacy for the constitutional prohibition of child labor, emphasizing the need for effective decentralization and local civic bodies' principal responsibility. Urging immediate eradication of specific sectors like child prostitution, the CACL emphasizes implementing free, quality, compulsory elementary education to deter child labor. Community development, social mobilization, and a comprehensive, integrated approach involving civil society and government programs are crucial, with local self-government playing a central role in eliminating child labor through strict law enforcement. It suggests strategies like awareness building, supporting community development, enforcement of strong legislature, etc. for the elimination of child labour.
