Abstract	Analysing the legislative framework, social issues, and critical data, this research delves into the complicated subject of child sexual exploitation in India. Many instances of child sexual exploitation go unreported even if legislation like the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012 have been put into place. The research looks at how government programs have dealt with child protection, explores seminal cases like Tuka Ram v. State of Maharashtra (1979), and investigates the cultural and social elements that lead to underreporting. It also draws attention to the POCSO Act's abuse, which suggests places that need revision. Further evaluations focus on the National Commission for the Protection of Child Rights' (NCPCR) function in this area. This study sheds light on the mental and physical health consequences of child exploitation over the long term and suggests ways to protect children from these dangers.
