Akila who is studying in her 2nd year of bachelor of commerce, lived in a government run tribal girls hostel till she finished her class 12th, Pennagaram, district Darmapuri in Tamil Nadu. India has the highest number of working children in the world - an estimated 29 million children between the ages of 5 and 14 go to work. Child labour is illegal in India for children under 14 years of age. Girls often work in informal sectors such as domestic work or as paid house helps, which are not counted in official statistics. Most of these children belong to the poorest, most marginalised communities - including Scheduled Castes and Tribes. Children who fall through the gaps and do not have a quality education or who drop out of school - have a higher susceptibility to violence, abuse and exploitation - including a higher risk of entering the child labour workforce, and have a higher risk of being married off as children. 53% of adolescents drop out of school before they are 15 years old. 43% of adolescent girls are married before they are 18 years old. Being outside of the school system means that children are at prime risk of abuse, vulnerability and violence, and particularly at risk of child marriage, Child marriage is illegal in India.
