AIDS in India has been a taboo topic for years and to a large extent it still remains the same today. The most vulnerable group among HIV affected are children. Around 90% of all children living with HIV acquired the infection from their mothers during pregnancy, birth or breastfeeding. Majority of HIV infected kids are abandoned by their parents or orphaned in the city.
