Children are the future of any country.

The report highlighted the alarming figures and information on child sexual abuse in India. Social taboo and stigma attached to child sexual abuse and lack of faith in the system’s ability to respond and deliver emerged as key factors that kept children away from reporting abuse.

This study attempts to look at the extent, causes, manifestation and the interventions made on trafficking of children in the country.  

Undernourished women tend to deliver low birth weight babies (Karmer, 1987) and to have pregnancy complications (Baird, 1947). Perinatal mortality and prematurity rates were found to be high among short statured women (Barros, 1987).

In India tribals are neglected a lot, discriminated in terms of income distribution and social status.
