The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) declared Jharkhand’s mica mines child labor-free on July 5, 2024. This milestone marks the first successful effort to cleanse a supply chain of child labor. The initiative began 20 years ago, involving state and central governments, civil society, and local authorities. Around 20,000 children were previously employed in mica mining but have since been rehabilitated and enrolled in schools.
