Teacher did not have malicious intentions, say police on assault of Muslim boy in classroom

The case has been filed under non-cognisable charges which means the teacher who asked other students to slap the boy cannot be probed without a court’s order.

Imprisoning A Child is A ‘Flagrant Violation’ Of The Law, Yet Police Freely Violate The Law, 77% Of Detentions In UP — Article 14

Imprisoning A Child is A ‘Flagrant Violation’ Of The Law, Yet Police Freely Violate The Law, 77% Of Detentions In UP

Despite the Supreme Court calling the detention of children ‘a flagrant violation of the law’, right-to-information data reveals at least 79 such detentions, 61 from Uttar Pradesh alone over five years. Juvenile justice law clearly says that no child in conflict with the law can be placed in a police lock-up or jail.

Children have the RIGHT to a say in the decisions that affect their lives.
We need a revolution led by children themselves to guarantee their rights are respected in full.

Drei Gründ warum in das EU- gehören:

1. Unternehmen wären verpflichtet, bei der Risikoanalyse ihrer auch Verletzungen von Kinderrechten einzubeziehen;
2. Die Auswirkungen von Umweltverschmutzung auf Kinder müssten berücksichtigt werden;
3. Betroffene Kinder müssten bei Beschwerden gegen Unternehmen gehört werden.

Solutions To Assam’s Child-Marriage Problem In Schools, Not In Mass Arrests Ordered By CM

The Guwahati High Court criticised charges of rape and child sexual abuse against many of more than 3,000 men arrested in Assam in less than two weeks for marrying underage women. The chief minister’s ‘war’ on child marriage focusses on marginalised minorities, particularly Muslims and devastates families. Mothers with young children are without support, as husbands and fathers are jailed.
