Justice For Every Child Telethon: Actor Sushmita Sen Says It Is Our Job To Protect Our Children
To provide support to child victims of sexual abuse and rape who are fighting their cases in court, Justice for Every Child campaign was kick-started by the Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation and NDTV. Today, as a part of the campaign, a 5-hour special telethon was organised, where experts, social workers and celebrities came together to discuss on how together the community can help protect the future of India - children. Actor Sushmita Sen joined the 5-hour telethon with NDTV's Dr Prannoy Roy and talked about the issue of child sexual abuse and why having a conversation around is the key towards a safe society. Here's what the actor said at the telethon:
Here's what Actor Sushmita Sen said on Justice For Every Child 5-Hour Telethon
Our children should be free to enjoy their childhood, as grownups, it is our job to protect them.
The safety and security of each child matters and I am very privileged to be a part of the campaign and voice my support for my favourite people - our children.
Children are the purest creation of life and to preserve this purity it is critical to nurture the children and preserve their lives.
We have such a young population in our country who don't have opportunities or safety.
We must be aware ourselves and keep our eyes open but even our government needs to be proactive to create a society where our children are safe.
