Hey mate here is your answer
Answer:
Poor people have the same challenges as most others, it’s just that it’s ten times worse. The struggle is so real because even with them trying so hard, they can never get over the hump because the pay is not going up equivalent to the prices of rent, insurance and all other basic needs.

Explanation:
- The world is urbanizing on a rapid scale: in 2014, the global urban population was almost 3.9 billion, and it’s expected to reach 6.3 billion by 2050. This trend is especially pronounced in India, where the World Bank estimated that up to 55% of people lived in urban settings in 2010, far more than the official rate of 31%.
- While many of these people making the move to urban centres do so in search of jobs and better lives, millions end up living in slums, and conditions for the urban poor are going from bad to worse. Today, one in six urban citizens in India live below the poverty line.
- A 2015 report from PwC and Save the Children uncovered some of the conditions India’s urban poor are living in. The challenges they face are enormous.
- A day in the life of the urban poor
- Every city in the world is having to tackle the issue of rising property prices and how this affects the urban poor. But in some Indian cities, the situation is becoming desperate. In Mumbai, for example, over 50% of the population live in informal settlements. As a result, they have little or no access to basic services: water, sanitation, power and waste management.
- For example, only 71.2% of urban households have access to clean drinking water in their house and one in five urban households do not have their own toilet, and instead depend on shared facilities. This also explains why India accounts for nearly half of the global population defecating in the open.
- Some of the most badly affected by these constraints are the young people growing up in these urban slums. Approximately 443 million school days are lost as a result of water and sanitation related diseases. As a result of this and the already low school enrollment rates, 68% of street children are illiterate.
