Question

Problems faced by migrant labourers in india

Answer 1

people from rural areas migrate with the hope that there will be better employment opportunities as well as better standard of living in urban areas. However, people who migrate to cities face many problems like housing and sanitation. The large-scale scale of people to towns and cities causes over crowding resulting in lack of accommodation, water, electricity and sanitation facilities. As more and more people migrate to cities slum develop. People in the slums take-up open space and illegally use water and electricity meant for the city dwellers. Slum dwellers live in unhygienic conditions causing pollution and congestion.
