Sub : Improvisation of the living conditions in slums
Dear Sir,
Through the esteemed columns of your prestigious newspaper, I would like to highlight the quality of life of the people living in slums. Each family consists of six to seven members who share a single room. Their children can be seen playing on the heaps of garbage and breeding grounds of flies, mosquitoes and cockroaches. Sincere efforts are required to improve the physical, social and economic conditions of these slum dwellers. Practical action should be taken by providing access to clean drinking water, proper health and sanitation facilities, waste management services and better housing facilities. Slum upgrading should be a major part of the government's agenda to alleviate the poor living standards of the people.
But unless government takes a quick action, there can be no sustainable solution to the housing challenges. The government is not doing much regarding this reasons which may include low incentives, less financial resources, lack of provision of any such reform due to their short-term electoral period. But NGOs,training institutes, local residents, community groups can join hands together with government to eradicate the miseries of slum dwellers.
Hope my letter would find a place in your newspaper.
Yours Truly,
Karuna/Karan
