continued interventions in the Parliament, written thought provoking articles in the
National media, engaged with State Governments and taken up the cause in the State
High Courts. He has highlighted the glaring gaps that exist in the institutional response
to Child Sexual Abuse vehemently, and holds that children will remain exposed and
vulnerable to sexual assault until the Government commits to a roadmap to ensure the
safety of our children.

assaults perpetrated against children, Rajeev has pushed relentlessly for Governments
– State and Central, police and judiciary to adopt a zero tolerance approach towards
crimes against children.
Under his ProtectOurChildren initiative, Rajeev seeks to ensure institutional responses
to Child Sexual Abuse and the wider issue of Child Rights and Child Safety.
