Abstract: Juvenile delinquency has been a part of our society for a long time. Juvenile delinquency is when a child under the age of 18 years commits a crime or engages in an illegal activity. The number of delinquents is constantly increasing in India along with the rest of the world. These delinquents are the ones that have a high chance of becoming an offender or a serious and violent criminal as an adult. These activities not only affect the individuals and their families but also the society as a whole. Hence, it is important to understand the many factors contributing to a child becoming a delinquent; these factors have been classified into four categories: social factors, individual factors, family background, and economic factors. A study was also conducted in which 26 respondents were taken through a semi-structured questionnaire. They were asked various questions about their views on juvenile delinquency and its perpetuating factors; we will talk more in-depth about the findings made from this study. In this paper, we aim at understanding the delinquents, their perpetuating factors, and what measures can be taken by a community to prevent and rehabilitate these children.
