Tour of downtown Delhi

This one's for Charlie.  
We had fascinating tour of the backstreets led by a 17 year old from the charity Salaam Balaak Trust.  He'd had to  leave his village at 7 years as his parents couldn't afford to raise him and he left for Delhi with his cousin.  Luckily he got picked up by the Trust and he hopes to have a career as an Air Steward when he leaves at 18 years.  He hasn't seen his parents since he left but phones every month and looks forward to sending them money when he has work.
Then on to Sikh House of Worship where volunteers feed up to 15,000 people each day,  My friend got stuck in with the chapatis.
