Crores of children all over the world are still made to work since childhood due to poverty and hunger. To tackle the problem, June 12 is observed as World Day Against Child Labour all over the world to raise awareness and implement action. The situation is worst in poor-developing countries, where crores of children are working on roads, hotels, and factories to feed themselves and their families.
