Firstly, everything cannot be left to the government as the State depends on various NGOs to take up issues of street kids. There is no check on how much money is being granted and released and how much is actually reaching the needy. Most programmes exist only on paper. There is very little attention on the individual child. This is something that the government cannot do.
Every child is a potential genius if the right inputs are given.
The Central and State governments have launched enough schemes for rehabilitating the street children by pumping huge amounts of money through the voluntary organisations. But unfortunately not much is being done as evident by the presence of a huge number of children at the railway stations and bus complexes. At the time of inspections, these voluntary organisations hunt for few children and later leave them to their fate. A monitoring committee should be formed in each town to keep a track of what the voluntary organisations are doing. There is no commitment on the part of the government to the problem of street children.
