Newspaper Run By Street Children
Location: Delhi
It's 13 years old, yet it is and will remain India's youngest newspaper.
Why?
Because the aptly named Balaknama is probably the only street news tabloid in the country created by street children for street children.
These smart kids are the reporters, editors and photojournalists of a full-fledged newspaper.
Balaknama was launched in 2003 with just two pages and an aim to cover stories -- like child labour -- that matter to this community.
Now, they sell a 16-page newspaper across four states -- Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
A few years ago, they revealed how children living at railway stations were forced to retrieve the dead bodies of people who were killed on the railway tracks.
The mainstream media picked up Balaknama's report and it led to a huge public outcry.
The National Committee for Protection of Child Rights stepped in and took action against the police.
This, folks, is just one example of how this extraordinary paper is bringing about change.
