In February 2015, I started my project on Anti-Child Labor as a part of a school program on social justice.  I have persisted with this project for over 18 months with the key highlights being:

  1.  Poster and Hoarding designs that I put together were the lynchpins of a nation-wide police campaign,
  2. A Website I designed (www.childsright.in) was recognized and adopted by Mumbai Police at an event where I was felicitated,
  3. A Citizen’s Online Network that I created and administered on a platform called Local Circles became a platform for citizens to voice their opinions on laws and report incidences of illegal child labor to the Police and
  4. my efforts were appreciated by none other than renowned ‘Save the Childhood’ activist and Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Kailash Satyarthi.
