The state government has decided to amend the Maharashtra Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Rules, 1997, and set up a taskforce in 36 districts to draw up a comprehensive action plan to rescue children employed illegally.

- Faisal Malik

The draft of the revised rules was issued on August 7, and suggestions and objections have been sought from citizens within the next 30 days, which will be presented to the labour department. The new rules are being framed after a gap of nearly 30 years.

The Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) (Amended) Act, 2016 prohibits the employment of children below 14 years in all occupations. It also regulates the work of adolescents between 14-18 years in hazardous occupations and processes. The labour department also issued amended rules for children hired or employed illegally.
