The term juvenile delinquency refers to a criminal act committed by an offender under 18years of age, which makes it a juvenile crime, and this research analyses the current juvenile delinquency situation. In this study, we examined the factors that affect the juveniles and lead to crime among them, such as their educational background, their family background, and their economic standing. Study findings suggest that low incomes of the the family, family background (nuclear or joint families, homeless people), and parental disregard for children are the main factors that are contributing to the rise in delinquency rates. Teens and young adults commit the majority of crimes due to the negative influences of their peer groups or the surrounding environment. There are many problems and concerns with children and juvenile delinquency in different countries. We are one of the young countries in the world, and we are experiencing a growing trend in this area. We aim to examine the factors that influence juvenile delinquency in this study.
