Pune. This initiative was taken by the Pune District
Legal Services Authority in response to the International Day Against Child
Labour. This is the first such clinic to be established at a railway station in
the country.
The Chief District and Sessions Judge
and Chairman of the Pune District Legal Services Authority guided the program
held at the Pune railway station, which included a seven-day special campaign
to rescue and rehabilitate child laborers in collaboration with the Labor
Department and the Central Warehousing Corporation. A rally was also held to
raise awareness.
Through this program, all needy and
affected individuals will receive free legal advice and services. Such programs
will be held from time to time by the Pune District Legal Services Authority,
as stated by Secretary Sonal S. Patil."
