Lost Childhoods Report

Khushboo Jain vs. Ministry of Railways 44 Forward > 2 Lost Childhoods: A study on platform children and other children in distress Background India is home to over 400 million children under 18 years old. These children make up more than 55 per cent of the population. Based on state police records in 2005, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) stated that, on average, more than 44,000 children are reported missing in India each year. Around 11,000 of these children remain untraced.1 This number could actually be much higher, as many cases are never reported because the families of these children are from a marginalised background and do not have the ability to report the incident. It is estimated that there are 11 million street children living in India, most of whom live in and around railway stations. In Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata, approximately 100,000–125,000 street children figure in the lists of missing, runaway, abandoned or trafficked children.2 Without support, these children are at risk of various forms of abuse and a lack of rights that not only denies them a childhood, but also forces them to grow up fast. Approximately 70,000 children arrive on station platforms in India per year. -

RIGHT to COHABIT: a HUMAN RIGHT Sparsh Agarwal*And Abhiranjan Dixit**
© 2020 JETIR March 2020, Volume 7, Issue 3 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) RIGHT TO COHABIT: A HUMAN RIGHT Sparsh Agarwal*and Abhiranjan Dixit** * B.A.LL.B. (Hons.), 5th year, Law College Dehradun, **Assistant Professor, Law College Dehradun, Uttaranchal University. “WITH CHANGING SOCIAL NORMS OF LEGITIMACY IN EVERY SOCIETY INCLUDING OURS, WHAT WAS ILLEGITIMATE IN THE PAST, MAY BE LEGITIMATE TODAY.” ABSTRACT India is a country which is world known for its unique cultural diversity and cultural variation. This article works an attempt to sort out and find out why cohabitation have to face legal and cultural issues, even when, it is a right of every person to cohabit whether heterosexually or homosexually. It clears the idea that cohabitation is a human right and is nothing for which a separate demand is to be made. Human rights are natural rights and are vested into a person by Mother Nature and may not require a backbone of any statute. The article has been divided into seven major heads starting with Introduction to the topic which gives the statement of problem and object of the study. Further the article explains the concept of human rights and relationship of human rights with other existent rights. The article proceeds with the concept of cohabitation and legal provisions which support cohabitation in India. There are no any explicit provisions which legalize cohabitation but judicial interpretation is done in such a way that it has become legal and have been said to be human right of every person. Now, cohabitation is not only about living together of heterosexual people but also of homosexuals which is elaborated upon in the article. -
