Abstract :

“The child is a soul with a being, a nature and capacities on its own, who must be helped to find them, to grow into their maturity, into fullness of physical and vital energy and the utmost breadth, depth and height of its emotional, intellectual, and spiritual being: otherwise there cannot be a healthy growth of nation.” - PN Bhagwati, Former Chief Justice of India, 2000. There are many rights and regulations made by government for welfare of children, but the issues of child rights and education of children are still suffering from tragic and burning problems in the country. We are tried to focus some of the issues of children here in the study and their position in the society. Especially girl’s rights are still struggling from contradictions because of gender discrimination.
