~ Every child has the right to life and to the needs that are most basic to existence... ~
India is home to 400 million children, the largest number in any country in the world.
And over 10 million of her children live in the fringes of the modern urban wilderness,
working, playing, sleeping and dreaming on the streets of the cities. Many become beggars,
risking their lives, dashing across the busy road of moving vehicles to ask for money from
passersby or passengers. How could anyone bear to turn his/her face away or walk the other way?
