I am running a sweet shop,last month labour commissioner inspected my shop and caught a child below 14 yrs working there,photos were also captured, now labour commissioner has sent me a notice asking that if there is any proof regarding age of child in my possession than i can produce the same before labour commissioner otherwise they will launch prosecution against me, i want to confess my guilt by depositing fine at this stage without going the matter in court, is it possible at this stage. kindly help.Regards

No its can't be settled out of court. You have to be charge for your offence..

Will you tolerate that if your son or daughter work in any shop who are under 14 years,? The ratio between poor and riches is very big decease in india sir. Atleast for a second if you remind you son's face on that child mean you didn't be done that. You have to be punished sir. Sorry for saying this.
