Due action is taken by the Ministry in coordination with the States/UTs, as and when any  complaint  is  received. As  per  the  report  submitted  by  the  States/UTs,  436 Institutions  were  closed  on  account  of  non-compliance  of  provisions  of  the  Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 from 01.08.2019 to 01.08.2020.

National  Commission for  Protection  of  Child  Rights  (NCPCR)  has  conducted  Social Audit of Child Care Institutions in India. The findings of the social audit of CCIs were shared by NCPCR with the District Magistrates.

The Commission for Protection of Child Rights (CPCR) Act, 2005 mandates National Commission for Protection of Child Rights and State Commissions for Protection of Child Rights to monitor the implementation of Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 (JJ Act) in the country.
