Lost Childhood

Picture credit- Neeraj Bunkar, Place- Budhpura village of Bundi district.

This is a picture that shows the failure of government schemes which meant for children. Right to education is far away from these children. It seems that the prohibition of child labor is not meant for these children. The inability of education and poor conditions of the family force them to work in this field at this age.

Those women who have children of 2 to 3 years and they work in the mining area, it becomes difficult for them to leave their children at home because in their home no one is there for look after their children. At the workplace, they do not have a shadow where they can keep their children, so they have to keep their children in the hot sun which sometimes makes their child sick.
