Children must be treated without discrimination. Perhaps the most disadvantaged group in India are the millions of street children who live or work on the street. Street children have fallen through society’s cracks – there are few ladders for them to climb back up. They live as their parents did and as their own children are likely to do.

Mean street
From the streets of Mumbai.
India has the world's largest population of street children.

The mean streets
From the streets of Mumbai.
IN 15th-16th century England, A whipping boy was a young boy who was assigned to a young prince and was punished when the prince misbehaved or fell behind in his schooling. This boy whips himself on the streets of mumbai to earn his living. His father and forefathers have been doing the same. coming from far off rural india, they are considered to be folk artist but have ended up begging for their survival.
