53 pc of children sexually abused in India: Govt survey
More than 53 per cent of children in India are subjected to sexual abuse, but most don't report the assaults to anyone, a new government survey said Monday.
Parents and relatives were found mostly to be the perpetrators of child sexual abuse in the country, Women and Child Development Minister Renuka Chowdhury told reporters while releasing the survey. "Child abuse is shrouded in secrecy and there is a conspiracy of silence around the entire subject," the minister said. Separately, nearly 65 per cent of schoolchildren reported facing corporal punishment beatings by teachers mostly in government schools, the survey said.
The ministry is working on a new law for protection of children's rights by clearly specifying offenses against children and stiffening punishments, Chowdhury said.
The first-ever national-level study by the ministry covered 13 of India's 28 states with a sample size of 12,447 children in the 5-12 age group, and 2,324 young adults.
It covered different forms of child abuse physical, sexual and emotional abuse, as well as female child neglect, the minister said. The survey didn't have a margin of error.
Last year, the Indian government banned the employment of children under age 14 as domestic servants or in hotels, restaurants or small teashops because children were often subjected to physical violence, mental trauma and sexual abuse.
