In the 21st century, evils like delinquency increase day by day which hinders social progress. As well as all the stakeholders must take the initiative to provide constructive guidance to the youth for positive development. The present study aimed to know the causes and the rehabilitation facilities for the positive development of Juveniles in the observation homes, in Assam. The investigators collected data from 42 juveniles in observation homes, Jorhat and Silchar, Assam. A semi-structured interview schedule for the juvenile and a self-structured interview schedule for the staff/counselor of the observation home were employed as tools for the study. The findings of the study highlighted that weak discipline in the family environment, financial compulsion, and parental occupations are related to the background of delinquent behaviors. Also, a lack of proper rehabilitation facilities exists in the observation homes.
