Plight of homeless people worsens in Delhi | As icy winds swept New Delhi, the homeless and the destitute of the city faced a tough time. Poor
people living on the pavement of Delhi are facing the hostile temperature by burning
pieces of wood and utilizing 'humble' blankets. "It is extremely cold for the
last 4-5 days. I am managing by burning pieces of wood. The weather has become
hostile," said Sanjay Shukla, a resident. Meanwhile, in Noida, a bus collided
with a truck due to poor visibility. Reportedly, around 40 people including children
were injured in the accident. "All of us were travelling in the bus that was overcrowded.
Around 7-9 girls in the bus were seriously injured. Even 3-4 children standing
in the front end of the bus suffered severe injuries," said Ram Kumar Yadav, an
eyewitness. Delhi has been witnessing cold and foggy mornings for over a week
now. On Sunday, the temperatures were slightly higher than the season's low on
Saturday at 5.5-degree Celsius. Most parts of northern India are experiencing
chilly days as the mercury dipped amid foggy conditions. |
