- *Consequences*: Child labour can lead to physical and emotional harm, limited future opportunities, and perpetuate poverty.
- *Laws and initiatives*: India has laws like the Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act, 1986, and initiatives like the National Child Labour Project to address child labour.
