Agartala: The federal government has placed a dedicated child marriage prevention official in every panchayat. Union Minister confirms the move. This network aims to stop illegal unions before they begin.
These officials now serve as the primary line of defense at the local level. They monitor vulnerable areas to ensure children remain in school. The minister stated, "Officials for child marriage prevention appointed in every panchyat."
Staff will report directly to district authorities. They track suspicious activity in their assigned zones. The initiative marks a shift in how the government enforces age laws in rural regions.
