The NGO (Non-governmental organization : a non-profit organization that operates independently of any government, typically one whose purpose is to address a social or political issue) is based at Chennai. Managed by a team of five members from Sevai, working in shifts, the booth would function round-the-clock at the station. The objective behind setting up the booth was to rescue runaway and missing children and prevent trafficking of minors. The rescued children would be brought to the booth immediately to make them feel comfortable. Thereafter, the volunteers would attend to their immediate basic needs such as providing food and space for taking rest, said the authorities. Minors would feel more comfortable in such environment instead of being taken straight to the police station. The team managing the booth would interact with the rescued children to ascertain their whereabouts and produce minors before the Child Welfare Committee as per the mandated procedure to reunite with their parents, officials added, newspaper reported.
