Child workers play and work near a new road being constructed on the mountain slopes of the Himalayas. Sikkim is a semi-Indian-ruled state. It has its own government and flag but is still controlled mainly from New Delhi and has no real country borders. The hope of many Sikkimese people is to: one day become more like Nepal and fully rule their own country. Child labour is widely spread all over India and Sikkim is no exception. The poverty in the countryside of this region is many times extreme.
