• B. Freedom from violence, abuse, and exploitation
• C. Both A and B
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both A and B

The children are the supreme assets of the nation. The child marriage violates the right of a child to grow in a healthy and developing environment to grow up as a responsible adult. The child marriage hinders the natural development of children which proceeds with their age. A child is a person which requires special care and attention, child marriage brings early maturity in children with a burden of maintaining a family while girl child is exploited under the pressure of bearing a child while she is still a child. Child marriage denies the right to education of children and violates almost all human rights. Many girl children face violence and abuse after marriage from the family of child groom which restricts the further mental and physical growth.
