Child protection is a primary and challenging issue for every country in the world. Instead of being educated at school, many children in India are involved in various activities such as working in hotels as servants, paperboys and doing the work of a salesperson due to various reasons like poverty, inequality and social and economic discrimination. There is a need for creating a favourable atmosphere and safe space for the overall development of the children. It is the responsibility of every individual, society, and government to protect children from various exploitative threats, abuse and violence that prevail in the societal structure. Parental care increases the strength and develops positive integration towards the community and society. Hence, the role of a family is very crucial in the overall development of the children. The present paper deals with a theoretical explanation of child protection and discusses the prevailing conditions of child protection in society. Keywords Child protection, parental care, society, ICPS

A new shrinkage-based construction is developed for a compressible vector x ∈ R n , for cases in which the components of x are naturally associated with a tree structure. Important examples are when x corresponds to the coefficients of a wavelet or block-DCT representation of data. The method we consider in detail, and for which numerical results are presented, is based on increments of a gamma process. However, we demonstrate that the general framework is appropriate for many other types of shrinkage priors, all within the Lévy process family, with the gamma process a special case. Bayesian inference is carried out by approximating the posterior with samples from an MCMC algorithm, as well as by constructing a heuristic variational approximation to the posterior. We also consider expectationmaximization (EM) for a MAP (point) solution. State-of-the-art results are manifested for compressive sensing and denoising applications, the latter with spiky (non-Gaussian) noise.
