Bachpan Bachao AndolanBachpan Bachao Andolan is a pioneer grassroots organisation working since 1980 to eradicate child labour and for protection of child rights, initiated by Nobel Peace Laureate Mr. Kailash Satyarthi.
The Bal Mitra Gram initiative is helping children in Indian villages become aware of their rights. 10-year-old Laxman Yadav is acutely aware of his rights, and successfully fought for them when he faced unfair treatment in his Jharkhand village.
Casteism and discrimination is still a problem in many parts of rural India. This 13-year-old has initiated a fight against these social evils in her village, vowing to eradicate casteism, illiteracy, child marriage, and child labour.
