There is a provision that allows a child home to operate by meeting the set standards.
Earlier on January 5, the Council had issued a notice urging operational child homes to apply for the license. But, none applied for it. The Council has also warned of action against the child homes operating without its permission.
It has asked the local governments and the respective provincial ministries to inform it about the child homes operating within their respective areas without official permission.
