A Review Study on Socio-economic Causes of Juvenile Delinquency

Abstract

Juvenile delinquent is a person under age, who is guilty of anti- social act and whose misconduct is an
infraction of law. The problem of “Juvenile Delinquency” is a very vague issue that consists of a lot of
contingencies and is also open to a number of apprehensions and interpretations as to how, when and
what preventive methods should be used to prevent such delinquent behaviour among the adolescents
of our nation.
