Bhan Sahu is interviewing evicted people today from a jhuggi in Raipur whose houses were broken by Govt on June 10 and since then they are living in temporary shelter. A woman asks her do we poor have any place in cities? Are cities only for rich? A pregnant woman says there is no roof in the rain and she is worried what will happen to her and her child.
