Abstract

Justice and protection are basic rights of every human being irrespective of age, sex, religion, color, caste, place of birth, and educational and economic background. This paper attempts to put together almost all the legal measures provided especially in India to children. Children require special protection and security because they are placed in the vulnerable class of the society which includes women, disabled and aged. Distinct thoughtfulness is required with regard to children because they are the future representatives of a nation and can be shaped as good citizens of a nation, and the world at large. While protecting and providing access to justice to children, the adoption and implementation of legal measures is very important. In addition to the aforesaid, the role of non-governmental organizations and other organizations, in fact law schools, is relevant in making justice and protection accessible to children as enshrined in the Indian Constitution as well as in various legislations.
