Supporting Child Marriage is nothing but Supporting Child Abuse

Child marriage is the practise of marriage with a young child. In the earlier time child marriage is a worldwide issue. It has spread throughout India. It is not only a serious violation of human rights under the United Nations Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, but it also inhibits progress towards developmental goals. Child marriage also means the end of their childhood. It has a harmful impact on children's rights such as an education, health, protection and also their future. These effects affect not just the girl but also her family and community. Significant progress in the reduction of child marriages has contributed significantly to the global drop in the prevalence of the practise. The drop might be attributed to a variety of causes, including higher maternal literacy, improved access to education for girls, stringent regulation, and migration from rural to urban regions. To increase the girl's education rates government take an aggressive step. Though Child marriage is strictly forbidden in our society but in some rural place it will be happened on the presence of her parents and relatives. The Prohibition of Child Marriage Act of 2006 contains enabling provisions that will make child marriage unlawful, safeguard victims' rights, and get stiffen punishments for anyone who help, abet, promote, or solemnise such marriages. there are many laws regarding child marriage in our society but firstly take a suitable step by those families who have girl child and they should send their girls to schools to take education. According to the legislation male must be 21 years old and woman must be 18 years old to marry. Any marriage between two people under these years is considered child marriage, which is illegal and punishable by law.
