Surveys of slums reveal that most of the parents are illiterate and they work as laborers
or as household help. The rate of school dropouts is very high amongst their children.
Girls, in particular, when they fail at school examinations, are married off at an early age.

c) Programs are conducted for all-round development of the children to imbibe in them
