Mumbai Homeless Woman

The Mumbai police have arrested a man in connection with the death of a 40-year-old homeless woman, whose body was found on the roadside in Sewree last month, an official said on Saturday.

Champa, 70, has been living on the road with her four grandchildren outside a train station in Mulund in Eastern Mumbai. They sleep on the pavement; meals are rare.

For those who say that Mumbaikars have no heart, this incident will surely make you think again. A day after news reports about the 78-year-old woman who was rescued from Kalyan station, help poured in from all corners to get her back on her feet.

At the Mumbai railway stations, the last thing you would stop to notice is a frail destitute woman bent with age, gingerly trudging the platforms. There are so many paupers that one more hurts nobody's eyes.
