Abstract: Article 24 of the Indian Constitution plays a pivotal role in protecting children under 14 years from being employed in factories, mines, and other dangerous jobs. This clause is essential in defending the rights of children, preventing their exploitation, and facilitating their access to both education and a nurturing environment during their formative years. The interpretation of Article 24 by the judiciary has been crucial in applying its principles, highlighting its significance in preserving the rights enshrined in the Constitution. Indian courts have been steadfast in emphasizing the necessity to shield children from labor exploitation, as evidenced by landmark rulings. For example, the Supreme Court's judgment in M.C. Mehta v. State of Tamil Nadu (1996) broadened the understanding of children's rights, linking the right to a labour-free childhood directly with the right to education. Furthermore, the judiciary has pointed out the state's duty to foster an environment conducive to the well-being and development of children. These judicial interpretations often consider the socio-economic reasons behind child labour, pushing for the government to enact effective policy measures and social welfare programs. The courts have called for rigorous enforcement of child labor laws and highlighted the importance of public awareness campaigns to dismantle the societal normalization of child labor. Despite these judicial endeavours, obstacles in the full realization of Article 24 remain, with poverty, insufficient educational infrastructure, and societal norms still driving child labor in many forms. This summary underscores the vital influence of judicial interpretations in shaping the application and enforcement of Article 24, stressing the continuous need for vigilance and action to protect the essence of childhood in India. A strong judicial stance, coupled with cooperative efforts, can truly secure the fundamental rights of children, paving the way for a brighter future for the country's young population.
