6.4.2 It is observed that the proportion of child<br />

workers varied substantially between the male<br />

and female as well as wards. Map 6.7 presents the<br />

differences in male and female real child workers<br />

by DCC wards. The Map shows that in some areas<br />

of Pallabi, Mirpur, Cantonment, Kafrul, Gulshan,<br />

Tejgaon and Dhanmondi, the proportion of female<br />

child workers was more than three percentage<br />

points higher than the males. In areas of the old<br />

city and Hazaribagh and also some parts of Mirpur,<br />

the case was just the reverse - with more male<br />

child workers than girls (Tables 6.8 and 6.9). The<br />

differences in male and female real child workers<br />

by wards are presented in Map 6.7.<br />
