The Bangalore police along with NGOs and the Child Welfare dept have rescued 300 children and several others being forced to beg. 6 people have been arrested in 9 cases but the kingpins still seem to be at large. The Bangalore police is saying that intends to take further action but the focus is on the rescued children for now. However, a survey conducted by NGOs over 4 months points out that there are over 1,100 children begging on the IT city's streets.
