Plan works in 25 states across India and has directly impacted the lives of more than a million children and their families. The right to child protection guarantees to all children irrespective of their caste, class, gender and ethnicity protection from or against any perceived or real danger or risk to their life, their personhood and childhood by the state and civil society. The right to protection restricts the actions of others, primarily adults and older children, to cause any kind of harm, abuse and exploitation. It is about ensuring that no child falls out of the social security and safety net and, those who do, receive necessary care, protection and support of the law and communities.Highlights
