NTR District Collector S. Dilli Rao has directed the officers of various departments to crack the whip on the accused booked in child abuse cases.
“We can prevent child labour, minor marriages and abuse on them when the Acts and laws, meant for children are enforced properly,” the Collector said at a convergence meeting jointly organised by the State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (SCPCR) and Child Rights Advocacy Foundation (CRAF), an NGO, here on Tuesday.
Officers from Revenue, Labour, Panchayat Raj, Tribal Welfare, Social and BC Welfare, Medical and Health, Police, Women Development and Child Welfare (WD&CW) and Education Departments, and Child Welfare Committee (CWC) attended the programme.
