Ask her opinion on the steps that should be taken by the government to counter the issues of child labour. She tells, "Child labour can leave many severe consequences on children and their families. When children work, it does not mean as a standard, they support their families economically, neither all of them get paid for their work since many of them work as bonded labour or as slaves. In addition to that, they face many problems which may cause permanent damage to their childhood. So to overcome this there should be a proper strict law against the people who practice child labour and providing free education to all the bellow poverty line children will surely uplift their life and the way of thinking and observing the society, which will result in a better social structure of the kids who don't have a good financial background."
Concluding her talk Himanshi talked about the efforts that can be put forth to overcome this major issue, she says, "Apart from giving punishments to those who force children to work, governments, societies, and communities should cooperate in a better way with each other to decrease child labour. Possible innovative solutions and suggestions should be taken from experienced people and then proper planning and implementation of a single strategy to overcome this complex issue can let this vanish soon."
