Every human being has rights

Dear Miloon,

Let me appreciate you for your frank reporting to UN on the urban slums. The demolitions by the government will only result in worsening the conditions of the poor in the city. Instead of demolitons state will have discuss on how security of tenure can be granted to the slum dwellers and how affordable housing can be provided to the poor and the neo immigrants...

To you, my middle class friends, the problem is not slums but why slums are created ? The answer lies not in demolitions but in building an economic system which is just both in the city and in the country side..
