Delinquency itself is soundly inadequate adjustment on the part of the individual to difficult situation. It has
been a long problem why some children. Behaviors are yet beyond the detection of expert sociologists, psychologist, and
others. Children who for various reasons-including parental alcoholism, poverty, breakdown of the family, overcrowding,
abusive conditions in the home, the growing HIV/AIDS scourge, or the death of parents during armed conflicts- are orphans
or unaccompanied and are without the means of substance, housing and other basic necessities are at greatest risk of falling
into juvenile delinquency The number of children in especially difficult circumstances is estimated to have increased from
80 million to 150 million between 192 and 2000. UN world youth report, 2003) Each juvenile offence is the outcome of a
complexity of cause some of whose origins data because years before the committal of the offence and others whose origins
are more obviously and immediately connected with the act of delinquency. It has been shown that a different set of cause is
involved in each individual case. It is impossible therefore to state the group of causes which will invisibly result in any
particular offence. In this study a researcher has taken up an as survey type of descriptive method. This method of
investigation attempts to describe and interpret what exists at present in the form of conditions, practice, processes, trends,
effects, attitudes, beliefs, point of view or attitudes that are hold, processes that are going on and trends that are developing.
