At a time when cases of abuse in children’s homes have shaken the nation, Gujarat is showing the way on how foster care can be a sound alternative with the right mix of financial incentives and vetting of foster families with the state seeing a significant jump in children under care from 1,784 in 2015-16 to 9,588 in 2017-18.
