Ensure rehabilitation of street children

According to various media outlets, the number of street children in Bangladesh could be around 4 lakh. Three-quarters of them are in Dhaka. These children are struggling to survive at a time when they are supposed to study and play. They are exposed to various threats as their need for education, health services, accommodation and social security remains unmet. We must, therefore, ensure their permanent rehabilitation so they can grow up as productive citizens of this country.
