Growing problem

Ashok Mehta

Sir — This refers to the article, “Children of a lesser God” (August 11) by Rinku Ghosh. Grandiose schemes for the welfare for children have never been implemented. They remain on paper only. For that matter, were the recommendations of former Chief Justices ever implementedij Did designated judges ever inspect the juvenile homesij Never. Child abuse is a problem not just in India but it is increasing all over the world. But the society doesn’t bother. There is a moral degradation all around.
