Human rights’ is the very soul of any sense of nationhood and it starts with children rights’ and their basic right to live. In the words of Frederick Douglass, “it is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” There are certain groups of human race which either by nature or because of the situation caught in vulnerable and helpless circumstances and children are one among them. Universally, children, the citizens of tomorrow are disadvantaged in a significant respect, that they are defenseless both mentally and physically. If born and brought up under conflicting conditions are open for exploitation. They fall easy victims to the various crimes perpetrated against them.
