The correct option is A Child Labour Prohibition Act, 1986 As per Child Labour Prohibition Act of 1986, a "Child" is defined as any person below the age of 14 and the CLPR Act prohibits employment of a Child in any employment including as a domestic help. The practice deprives children of their childhood, and negatively affects their physical and mental development.
