Gujarat Homeless

Shravan Seva, an NGO from Vadodara, Gujarat aim to make a difference in the lives of the elderly.

For 65-year-old widow Bano Bibi, the holy month of Ramadan has started on a traumatic note. The hut in Vadodara's Sulemani Chawl slum which was her home for the last 40 years has been demolished and she is living on the streets with her six granddaughters and daughter in law.

Around 800 families in Gujarat's Vadodara have been homeless for four months - ever since their houses were razed by the municipal corporation as part of a slum rehabilitation drive. The administration has failed to provide them with the promised new homes.
