Height of Hinduphobia in the comment section!!
People make permanant structures on enroached lands,footpaths,parks,marshlands,railway lands then expect to get full amenties
Does Mr Ambani also control the water supply? Did Modi finish his 1.8 billion US dollars Central vista?
India's inequality is stark and sinful.
Self interests and politics go hand in hand.
“Right to water” does not mean that the government HAS to provide me water wherever I choose to live. It has to be reasonable and these shanty’s are, but there has to be some onus on those who choose to move to an area that doesn’t have water established and then cry foul after the fact. Don’t move there!!
yet Indians mock poverty in other countries. Shame.
I am from rural India, and I don't have access to clean water.
Life of poor people in India revolves around procuring and storing water(that too not so clean water)
This is all due to overpopulation. Bring 2 child policy in populated states. Only BJP can do this. Other parties are just scared for their vote banks. BJP has done this in UP and Assam.
Can easily relate to it. Just few years back, I used to carry water on my shoulders from a leaking pipeline around a mile away daily. Today I have access to purified water for drinking.
There is no scarcity of rain on indias west coast. Then how come mumbai facing water problems.
May be corrupt state government.
How about 700 percentage infection rate in USA why is that not highlighted by west , why degrade India alone
In Indian villages the wasted water of cities are chemically treated and turned into clean water and brought to villages with drought. lakes are filled with this water to increase ground water these government projects are in South India it should be applied to the north
But they have cell phones
When you have a PM like Modi, you would have to thank God that even 10% have potable water.
im disgusted by just looking at these places
how can you live like this
Can we like………, cleanse all the poor? ………
Its not entire India's problem. May be in some areas Due to local government's
Iam from india rural village we have abundant of Drinking & irrigation Water Availability.
Well Ms. Narain is certainly carrying Prime Minister Modi's water. Any criticisms of his plans? How about his superspreader events/rallies?
India found water on the moon.
Those people need to be relocated: it's a stinking slum!
India rich getting richer poop getting poorer
No jobs for growing future
Overpopulation was the source of misery
India's overpopulation is a problem for India and the world. Less resources for everyone and more climate crisis
Communism is the only solution for India, look at communist Kerala how prosperous they are.
Here in South Indian there is full of water .world biggest backwaters,oldest idukki dam,waterfalls ….
Sad
They must built more building and water treatment for used water.
In France we retreat the used water and we make with that a new drinkable water .This is a cycle
