“Children are employed as they can be easily exploited. Child labour can severely affect children’s health, safety and cognitive development. These risks can have an irreversible impact on their development, health and well being,” she said.
The actress also emphasised on education, particularly highlighting why every child should go to school. “Education is a magic bullet, as it can help children grow up in safe and healthy environment for a better future,” she said.
