Prince William and Kate met some of the country’s most vulnerable children on Tuesday and heard first-hand from street kids how they’d run away from home due to abuse or poverty.

The royals visited a drop-in centre for charity Salaam Baalak at a Delhi train station - where around 6,600 children travel to each year, during their third day of their India tour.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the three will have lunch together.
