Guwahati: Authorities pulled two child workers from forced labour in Assam’s Hatsingimari region. The enforcement drive hit multiple sites. Officials targeted locations including Hatsingimari, Khopatiya Fattapara, and Sakhachar to stop illegal hiring practices. Local investigators are hunting down further violations.
The District Labour Officer oversaw the sweep. Officials want to stamp out child labour violations across the state. They are currently tight-lipped about the specific businesses involved or legal steps taken against the employers. A source noted: "The authorities continued their inspection as part of efforts to identify and prevent the employment of children in violation of labour laws." Expect more updates as the investigation drags on.
