Save the children
Representatives of 25 civil society organisations held a meeting on Friday at the Hotel Aurora Towers on behalf of the Indian branch of The International Save the Children Alliance, specifically to take stock of the situation on child protection issues in Maharashtra. Speaking about it Bajirao Jadhav, Commissioner of Women and Child Development (WCD) says, “CSOs and government departments should jointly work to assess issues affecting children at the district level. This will help the WCD Department to implement services meant for children.” During the conference the issue of children being employed as child domestic workers to work in households in Mumbai was also raised.“A comprehensive policy for children could help promote child rights better and would help to safeguard them against such exploitation,” he adds.
