Child Rights Sensitisation Programme Conducted in Arunachal Pradesh

The Arunachal Times reported that a sensitisation programme on child rights was recently organised in Arunachal Pradesh. The event brought together educators, local officials and child‑welfare activists to discuss legal protections and welfare measures for children. Participants were briefed on national legislation such as the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act and on practical steps to prevent abuse and neglect. The programme also featured interactive sessions aimed at equipping community members with tools to identify and report violations. Organisers said the initiative seeks to strengthen grassroots awareness and ensure that children’s rights are respected across the state.

The session underscored the importance of collaborative effort between government agencies and civil society to create a safer environment for minors. Attendees were encouraged to disseminate the information within their own localities, thereby extending the impact of the sensitisation drive beyond the immediate venue. The Arunachal Times highlighted the event as part of a broader push to embed child‑rights education in the region’s public discourse.
