Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT: The study of socio-economic status of Muslims in India with specific focus on the growth of child labour among the Muslim community is very significant. Despite having various constitutional provisions and policy frameworks that aimed at safeguarding children’s rights and liberty, a significant number of children are engaged in labour activities. This paper tries to study the situation of Muslims in economy, family status of Muslim, status of education and societal status. It is an attempt to describe the historical marginalization, economic deprivation, lack of access to quality education along with social exclusion which has contributed to the increasing number of child labour among Muslims. In this study both the qualitative and quantitative method is used to analyze the data collected through government reports and academic literatures.
