Up to 176 million Indian children are estimated to lack adequate care and protection, as they struggle to survive on the fringes of India's economic explosion - a number equivalent to well over twice the total population of the UK. Millions of children lead desperately difficult lives in appalling conditions, reminiscent of the poverty of Victorian London but on a subcontinental scale. Friends of Salaam Baalak Trust UK (FoSBT) believes that children in the 21st century should not suffer from such a gross lack of opportunity, and works towards easing the pain, leveling the playing field and igniting the potential of as many as possible of these modern-day Oliver(ia) Twists.
