This paper explores the practical challenges and socio-economic barriers that impact the protection of child rights in India through a series of in-depth case studies. By focusing on real-world examples of child labour, early marriage, and access to education, the study critically evaluates the strengths and limitations of India's legal framework. The analysis highlights gaps in enforcement and offers recommendations to improve the protection and welfare of children, aligning domestic efforts with international commitments. Through examining various instances of child rights violations, it becomes evident that while India has made significant strides in enacting legislation to protect children, there remains a disconnect between policy and practice. The lack of effective enforcement mechanisms and accountability measures often hinders the implementation of these laws, leaving children vulnerable to exploitation and abuse. To address these shortcomings, it is imperative for the government to strengthen monitoring and evaluation systems, enhance coordination between agencies, and invest in the capacity building of key stakeholders. By taking a comprehensive approach to child protection, India can ensure that its legal framework translates into tangible improvements in the lives of its most vulnerable population.
