BELOGIVIVI: Six child labor, which is among nine saved from Nippani, found married.
The Child Welfare Committee (CWC) is currently looking after them at the shelter here.
Children praise from Barwani District at Madhya Pradesh (MP).
Children are now trapped in shelter houses because CWC can send them back home only after cemARe registration at the local police station, they were saved.
Although CWC directed the Labor Department to file a complaint at the Sadalaga police station, the latter refused to do so, with the reason they were not child workers.
Do not have Kannada’s language knowledge and cannot adapt to the food served here, children suffer in shelter houses.
Children are saved by the NGO spandana and are produced before CWC.
During the investigation, the CWC has found that children allegedly taken by sugar factories as workers bound.
However, local Tahsildars have reported that they are not bound workers but work as contract workers hired by sugar mills.
Further questions have revealed that six children (or three young couples) – Three men and three females aged 15 and 16 – married to each other.
Kulati CWC CWC Sister Lourd Mary J told Toi: “After we learned that some children married, we told our colleagues at Barwani (MP).
They will take appropriate action after these children are sent back.
But the Department of Power Work has not filed a complaint at the local police station because we cannot release it from the house of residence.
Children are kept as laborated workers.
I do not understand why the labor department does not consider this problem serious.
We have directed the department to file complaints at the Sadalaga Police Station Before January 31.
“Labor Commissioner Venkatesh Shindihati said Tahsildar had submitted a report saying that children were not employed by sugar factories, and therefore they were not child workers.
“How can we file complaints when children don’t work.
NGOs that save children can continue and submit complaints,” he said.
