Comprehension Passage

Read the passage carefully and answer the question:

After ratification of the United Nations' Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in 1992, India changed its law on juvenile to ensure that every person below the age of 18 years of age, who is in need of care and protection, is entitled to receive it from the state. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCRC) was set up in March 2007 under the Commission for Protection of Child Rights Act, 2005. The constitution of India guarantees all the children certain rights which include: (i) Right to free and compulsory elementary education for all children between the age group of 6‐14 years. (ii) Right to be protected from any hazardous employment till the age of 14 years (iii) Right to be protected from being abused and forced by economic necessity to enter occupation unsuited to their age or strength (iv) Right to equal opportunities and facilities to develop in a healthy manner. However, despite having so many legal instruments the children in India are still not secured. Several indicators are showing how the Child Rights are being violated in different parts of our country whose plausible social and economic consequences would be more dangerous. Child Abuse is another dangerous part of erosion which silently kills the potential and development spurt of many children. We still live in a tabooed society in our country, where no‐proper sex education is provided to the children. Children get molested and abused but due to ignorance, they fail to protest and keep on becoming victim of exploitation for long.

Which is one of the dangerous things done to the children that silently kills the potential and development spurt of many children?

1
Child rights
2
Child abuse
3
Sex education
4
