This study was conducted by Butterfly, New Delhi in the six major cities of Gujarat, India, i.e. Ahmedabad, Surat, Rajkot, Jamnagar, Vadodara, and Bhavnagar. Given the fact that no previous attempt has been made to enumerate street children who live in these cities and the paucity of literature about the condition in which these children live, it is hoped that this study would add to the knowledge and contribute to the cause of making a strong case towards the development of policy and services for street children in Gujarat.
