Tarannum Siddiqui

Abstract :

This paper highlights the problems of children living on streets. However, these children having child rights in the Indian constitution, even then thousands of children are still on the street. Rapid emergence of the street children in developing cities of any country is considered as a natural phenomenon all over the world as the poorest of the poor masses of the rural areas migrate to their accessible cities under the operating forces of ‘push and pull’ factors. Their over accumulation in these places, however, gradually aggrandize the problem. All these children are depriving of so many amenities particularly the most important is education. Summary: Paper suggests that Each and every child of the slum must be provided with free education apart from the free boarding facility, at least up to matriculation and there should be job guarantee for the matriculates.
