In a letter addressed to the guest by the founder of the NGO, he wrote  how “I realized that the people in jail are not the real sufferers, but the real sufferers are the children of inmates in jail. What these children go through is many a time worse than what inmates in jail have to go through, there fore we all must come forward to help these children.

We find many charters and declarations of human rights, national and international laws and manuals dedicated to describing the rights of prisoners. But surprisingly I am yet to come across any law, charter, or manual which prescribes or outlines the rights of these children.” he want on to say that he has committed his life to service for the children.
