ABSTRACT- The challenge of juvenile delinquency has existed for as long as human society itself. Juvenile delinquency is a profoundly serious issue as it often leads to adult criminal behaviour. To address this problem, criminologists and penologists have consistently made efforts. Dealing with juveniles requires a delicate approach that differs from that applied to adult criminals. Therefore, it is imperative to provide proper care, treatment, and rehabilitation to help them assimilate into society and become law-abiding citizens. Since children represent the future of any nation, it is crucial to adopt a reformatory approach for juveniles and young offenders, rather than a punitive one. This research paper aims to analyse the rehabilitation and social reintegration of children who require care and protection, as well as the judicial perspective and court-initiated efforts in rehabilitating and reforming juvenile delinquents. Keywords: Juvenile, Reformatory, Delinquency, Rehabilitation.
