Mine Labour Protection Campaign Trust (or MLPC Trust) is a non-profit organisation committed to regulating mining and empowering mine workers. MLPC encourages the formation of people’s cooperatives for striving towards collective action against the injustice meted towards mine workers. We also promote sustainable mining which is mindful of the environment. MLPC is active in advocacy for the rights of mine workers. Founded in 1994, MLPC currently operates in Bhilwada, Bundi, Jodhpur, Nagour and Udaipur.
Child labour in the mining industry is a persistent issue with an estimated 3,75,000 children working in mines and quarries across Rajasthan, with the number of girls being twice as more as boys, making them more vulnerable to gender-based violations which often go unreported.
