Solution

The correct option is B 14 years
The minimum permissible age for employment in any factory or mine is 14 years. The Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) act 1986 ensures the safety of the child (below 14 years) for certain employment areas. Article 24 of the Indian Constitution provides protection of children from involvement in economic activities unsuited to their age.
Hence, the correct answer is B.
