National Child Labour Project (NCLP)

To combat the issue of child labour in India, a National Child labour Project was approved by the Cabinet on 14th August, 1987, during the Seventh Five Year Plan Project. Under the Project, a project based Plan of Action was envisaged. The NCLP was formulated with the basic objective of suitably rehabilitating the children withdrawn from employment and to reduce the incidence of child labour. The Project consists of three main ingredients :

.	Legal Action Plan
	Emphasis will be laid on strict and effective enforcement of legal provisions relating to child labour under various laws.
.	Focusing of General Development Programme
	Utilization of various on going development programmes of other Ministries/Departments for the benefit of child labour where as possible.
.	Project based Plan of Action
	Launching of projects for the welfare of working children in areas of high concentration of child labour.
