Why in Salem?

Salem is one of the major railway junctions of Tamil Nadu having approximately 50,000 footfalls in a day as per railways (Census 2011). Almost 182 trains from different parts of the country pass this junction every day. It is well connected with all parts of the country, particularly to neighbouring states and districts.

Let’s look at the following charts and data to have an idea about how many children we are rescuing from different countries and which age they have.
