Child marriage in India is a serious issue involving individuals under the age of 18, often occurring without the full consent of the child. This practice negatively impacts the quality of human resources and national productivity, hindering children's access to education and health. With over 1.5 million cases of child marriage among girls each year, India accounts for one-third of the total child brides globally. This study aims to understand the factors causing child marriage and its impact on education and the quality of life of children. The method used is a quantitative approach with linear regression analysis to test the influence of child marriage on poverty and economic growth. The results indicate that child marriage contributes to the intergenerational cycle of poverty, reducing individuals' potential to participate in economic development. This research is expected to provide a clear picture of the challenges faced and serve as a basis for efforts to reduce child marriage, allowing children better opportunities for their future.
