Slum India Day Tour.(2 Hrs).1500inr

The slum population is constantly increasing: it has doubled in the past two decades. The current population living in slums in the country is more than the population of Britain. India's slum-dwelling population rose from 27.9 million in 1981 to over 40 million in 2001.
As per the 2001 census of India, 640 towns spread over 26 states and union territories have reported existence of slums. This means one out of every four persons reside in slums in our cities and towns. The NSSO survey in 2002 has identified 51,688 slums in urban areas of which 50.6% of urban slums have been declared as "notified slums."
This growing slum population and the lack of basic facilities will badly impact on India’s overall target achievement in water and sanitation sectorhttp://slumindiatours.webs.com/

The South can be visited anytime, but the best season is from December to May, when the weather is at its best.
