Children in especially difficult circumstances need protection, care and rehabilitative services for their growth and development. “The U N estimates that up to 8 million children around the world are living in care institutions, the real number is likely to be much higher, because of chronic gaps in information” (Save the Children, 2009). Unfortunately statistics in India are not available on the magnitude of the problem in different areas, however the enormity of problems faced cannot be doubted in a country where more than one-fourth of the population lives below the poverty line, natural calamities take their toll, unemployment exist on a large scale, the incidence of illiteracy, malnutrition, unsatisfactory housing is large. In such circumstances, children are the worst affected. Children are deprived of opportunities for growth and development. A small number of children are currently covered under welfare services and are fortunate enough to get admitted in institutions.
