UNESCO's Global Education Monitoring Report, 2021, shows that 11 million girls are likely to be out of school after the Covid-19 pandemic, and these girls are between the ages of 12 and 17. A study by the India Child Protection Foundation shows a 95% increase in the sale of child sexual abuse products during the Covid-19 pandemic. In other words, child trafficking, child rape and sexual abuse have increased in India. India currently has an infant mortality rate of 32 while urban areas have 23 and rural areas have 36. According to UNICEF data, 2 crore 90lakh 60 thousand children are orphaned and abandoned in India. The Fifth National Family Health Survey, 2019-2020, shows that 11 states in India have stunted child growth and 14 states have high rates of child underweight. India and nine other countries will account for half of the world's population growth by 2050. So there will be huge population growth in India in coming days. India's biggest challenge in this current situation is to build a better India. But it is not possible to build a developed India if the state is not aware of the development and education of children. Government of India has taken several programs for child protection and overall development.
