The UPR is one of the key mechanisms to remind States of their responsibility to fully respect and implement all human rights.. EQUATIONS and ECPAT International (End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking of Children for Sexual Purposes) submitted this report as a part of the stakeholders inputs to the process. The key concerns raised in the submission is that India needs to ratify the ILO Convention on the Worst Forms of Child Labour (No. 182) and The Minimum Age Convention (No.138).Other recommendations include the need for the domestic legal framework to be brought in line with international standards to better provide legal protection for children throughout the country, as current laws fail to provide adequate definitions of child prostitution, child pornography and child trafficking and do not appropriately criminalise activities committed by offenders in relation to those crimes.
