NCPCR writes to Delhi govt over COVID-19 protocol violation

New Delhi: The National Commission for the Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) took notice of the issue on Thursday, in which young school students appear in a promotional ad for the Delhi government.

According to the Commission, the advertising is found to be in violation of the COVID-19 protocol, threatening the lives of minors. These videos are in contravention of the Juvenile Justice Act of 2015 as well as the Government of India’s COVID-19 pandemic protocol guidelines. As a result, under Section 13(1)(j) of the CPCR Act, 2005, the Commission has taken cognizance of this case.
