Rescue street children

The sight of children begging and sleeping on the streets is truly heartbreaking. We cannot even begin to imagine their plight. They live in constant insecurity in terms of nourishment, shelter and physical wellbeing. These street children are severely at risk of being targeted by criminal gangs of all kinds. The fact that millions of children are exposed to such high risks contradicts the government’s commitments and pledges to ensure the security of all children in society. Civil society groups, NGOs and relevant government ministries must come forward and rescue these children from the dangers in which they live.
