Though Kailash Satyarthi’s optimistic approach to Indian legislation in connection with saving children from exploitation at various levels is welcome, the reality is depressing (“Safe childhoods for a safe India”, Jan.20).

It is common knowledge that children from Gujarat, Rajasthan, Bihar and even the eastern States are working here. Though these children are visible, no action is taken.
