India - Delhi - Slum Living

Street scenes of Tehkhand Slum, Delhi, India. A man carries a large load of scavenged waste material on his head. Many slum dwellers earn a living from recycling old industrial waste. A cow grazes in the the rubbish and swage. Indian slums are characterized with substandard housing, squalor and lacking in security. They are home to increasing numbers of people and families who are usually very poor or socially disadvantaged. Most slums lack clean water, sanitation and other basic services, and as such they pose a serious threat to public health as infectious diseases are able to spread easily.
