		+	''With Sexual Predators Around And Hungry Mouths To Feed, Daily Wager Moms Need Creche Safety For Their Children''
		+
		+	Gyanwati has one son and six daughters. The youngest girl, Mohini, is one and half year old. Gyanwati works as a daily wager, and with nowhere to leave her baby while at work, her other daughters, aged 13 and 10, are forced to stay at home. They go to school on alternate days, taking turns to look after their sister. The family worked out this arrangement because financial needs meant Gyanwati no longer had the option of staying home.
		+
		+	When TOI spoke to the mother of seven, she said she was helpless but only too happy to have found a way out for the sake of the family. She informed the municipal school about her circumstances and got special permission for her daughters to miss classes every other day.
		+
		+	This is one of the many case studies in the ground-mapping exercise carried out by voluntary organisation Mobile Creches in north-west Delhi’s Shahbad Dairy. The survey revealed that working women leave their children in the care of older siblings or with neighbours because, as the survey in A Block of this slum settlement showed, there are no day care centres or creches there, though child sexual abuse remains a concern.
		+
		+	In many cases, parents leave their children unattended to at home. Geeta Devi, domestic help, and her husband put their daughter, Nandini, to sleep and even lock her in the house if their work timings do not allow either of them to be at home. By managing their timings, the girl is alone at home only for a short time. Geeta no longer works in the afternoon to be able to look after her daughter. Nandini is nine months old and Devi worries that soon it may not be possible to continue with this routine.
		+
		+	These cases underline the necessity of a creche framework at the state level. TOI reported on Thursday how the number of facilities under the National Creche Scheme has drastically declined between 2015 and now, with the figure for creches coming down from over 23,000 to 7,000. With a large workforce of women in the unorganised sector across states, there is a growing demand for daycare facilities, especially in the poorer settlements.
		+
		+	It is clear from the data of Delhi Commission for Protection of Child Rights that Shahbad Dairy isn’t a safe place to have children alone at home. The cases of missing children logged at the local police station were 124, 134 and 162 in 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively.
		+
		+	Census 2011 shows that in north-west Delhi’s population of 36,51,261 there were 4,43,195 children aged 6 and under, which is 12% of the district’s population, and the highest for this particular demographic among all Delhi district.
		+
		+	Sumitra Mishra, executive director, Mobile Creches, said that the facts emerging from the Shahbad Dairy study are significant indicators of how creches can help ensure the safety of children. These findings will form part of a ground report on need for creches being done by Mobile Creches for DCPCR.
		+
		+	Since the NGO also runs creches under the National Creche Scheme, Mishra is aware of the challenges. “The resources assigned to each creche in the existing scheme is very low,” she said. “There is no provision for training the caregiver at creches on early childhood care. Also the wages paid to the creche worker and helper are lower than the minimum wages. These are critical concerns that deter NGOs from stepping forward to take up the operation of creches.”

		+	''Child Sex Abuse May Rise As Safe Spaces For Kids Of Poor Women Shrink''
		+
		+	In 2015, there were over 23,000 centrally run creches for the poor in India. Then, in 2017, the government tweaked the way these creches were funded. Now, there are a little over 7,000. With their numbers so drastically reduced there is a serious worry facing parents who work as daily wagers and have nowhere to keep their kids aged between six months and six years old.
		+
		+	Till the end of 2016, the Rajiv Gandhi National Creche Scheme (RGNCS) was essentially centrally run. The Centre bore 90% of the cost while the NGO running the creche contributed 10%. But all that changed in January 2017.
		+
		+	A revised cost-sharing formula makes it a 60:40 deal between the Centre and the states; for the Northeast and Himalayan states it is 90:10; for UTs without a legislature, however, it’s fully centrally funded. The states were also required to implement the programme.
		+
		+	But now with only 7,316 operational creches, the ministry of women and child development (WCD) claims it has found little support in implementing the rechristened National Creche Scheme. The target was to have reached 23,555 creches by April 2018.
		+
		+	While the WCD ministry has no clear answer as to why states are not coming forward to proactively take up these creches, the brass admits that the creche programme is in the lurch. They say they have been writing to states on the matter. According to officials, most of the creches (around 21,000) under RGNCS were run through a voluntary organisation — Indian Council for Child Welfare (ICCW) — till December 2016.
		+
		+	However, the ministry dissociated itself from ICCW, which is under high court scanner over what the ministry termed “financial integrity” issues. While Gita Sidhartha of ICCW has denied the allegations, the dissociation resulted in a sudden decline in the number of governmentrun creches. WCD officials claimed there were cases where creches run by ICCW were found to be bogus. WCD earlier this month registered an FIR against ICCW in the creche funding related matter.
		+
		+	With the main implementing NGO, that is, ICCW, out of the picture, and the funding model revamped, the response since then has been far from encouraging, officials said.
		+
		+	In times of rising child sexual abuse, these creches were especially needed for poor families in slums.

		+
		+
		+	Even as the government’s flagship Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is steering focus to toilets for poor households and community toilets in slums, the countrywide anganwadi programme under the Integrated Child Development Scheme is lagging far behind on this front.
		+
		+	The ministry of women and child development has informed Parliament that out of the 13,63,300 functional centres for children of up to six years, toilet facility is available in 9,29,339 anganwadis. This comes to just about 68.17% of the total operational anganwadis. Moreover, as many as 1,90,404 anganwadis do not have drinking water facilities.
		+
		+	The response of the WCD ministry came to a question in the Rajya Sabha on availability of facilities like toilet and water in anganwadis. Minister of state in the WCD ministry Dr Virendra Kumar said in his reply that there are 14 lakh anganwadis sanctioned in the country out of which 13.63 lakh are operational as on June 30.
