Child Labour: A Global Challenge and the Need for Urgent Action

Child labour is a complex social problem globally, which severely impacts the education, health and overall development of children. Every year, June 12 is observed as World Day Against Child Labour, a global initiative led by the International Labour Organization (ILO). It aims to raise awareness and encourage global, national, and local efforts to end child labour in all its forms. The observance is especially crucial in 2025, the year set under the Sustainable Development Goal Target 8.7 for the global elimination of child labour. However, despite significant progress, the goal remains unmet. The 2025 theme ‘Progress is clear, but there’s more to do: Let’s speed up efforts!’ reflects the reality that although many countries have reduced child labour cases, millions of children worldwide continue to work in exploitative and hazardous conditions. The theme is a reminder that isolated efforts are not enough; what’s required is coordinated, persistent, and large-scale action to guarantee every child’s right to education, play, and protection from exploitation..

"Towards a corruption-free India: Challenges and solutions of Lokpal and Lokayukta"

Corruption remains one of the biggest challenges to good governance in India. To tackle this issue, India set up powerful institutions like the Lokpal at the national level and Lokayuktas in the states. Their job is simple yet vital: to hold public officials accountable and make sure power isn’t misused. In a recent move, the Lokpal of India adopted a new motto: “Empower Citizens, Expose Corruption.” This isn’t just a slogan—it reflects a deeper shift toward putting citizens at the center of the anti-corruption fight. It encourages people to speak up, report wrongdoings, and demand transparency..

Northeast India: Towards stability, peace and inclusive development

Once considered a distant frontier, India’s Northeastern Region (NER) has, over the last decade, been transformed into a symbol of progress, stability, and untapped potential. Guided by the Prime Minister’s vision of “Act East” and “Transformation by Transportation,” the Ministry of Development of Northeastern Region (MDoNER) has steered a deliberate and inclusive developmental journey. Focused policy interventions, infrastructure investments, peace accords, and institutional support have collectively reshaped the region’s trajectory. In alignment with its core mission, MDoNER has channeled substantial budgetary resources into improving essential services: power, water supply, health, education, and transport connectivity. This public investment is not merely about physical infrastructure—it is part of a broader strategy to reinforce social stability. By enhancing basic services, these investments help close the long-standing development gap in the region, thereby reinforcing peace and enabling further growth..

India’s Upcoming Census 2026–27: Why It Matters More Than Ever

A people, as in ‘We the People,’ in the preamble of the Constitution, is a political community.
