ABSTRACT
The development of a nation depends upon the nature and kind of its human resource. All individuals regardless of their strength and liabilities of personality and potential, contribute towards national development. Children are the valuable assets of our nation the future lies in them, and they should be given chance to bloom in best possible manner however, because of different social, economic, and psychological Factors they fail to prosper which leads to child delinquency. The Juvenile Justice System in India is made based on the assumption that the young offenders should be corrected in the best possible manner and shall be subjected to non- penal treatment; they should be focussed on reformation rather than on punishment. Hence, India realises the need of a law which not only deals with a child in conflict with law but also a child who needs care and protection.
