Abstract

Every child is full of talented qualities but it needs such a society and suitable time which helps to shine its talent like rainbow veins. The schemes of the government are commendable for child development, but their non-use on the ground is the biggest hindrance in child development. There the role of law starts where it is tried to bring it on the right path through corrective methods or by punishment for which various provisions were already made in many laws like in Section-82 of the Indian Penal Code-1860. The Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act was enacted in 1960, the Juvenile Justice Act in 1986, the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act in 2000 and now the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act in 2015. Children should be kept away from crime not by punitive methods but by corrective methods and they should be prepared in such a way that they can become good citizens, but for some years there has been an unprecedented increase in cases of rape, murder, kidnapping by minors, which need to be curbed. Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2015 was enacted for the purpose of juvenile justice, Child Welfare Committee and Juvenile Justice Board for children in conflict with the law were constituted at the district level all over India, which The Ministry of Women's Welfare and Child Development and the Department of Justice are jointly operating it. Certainly, their role in improving child's crime tendency can be beneficial, and with the proper effort and cooperation of the family and society, the disintegrating childhood can be saved. Which is a bitter truth.
