I am in Dharavi right now. Close to three thousand migrant workers standing in queue. They say it is difficult to survive a day more in this big city. Starvation is killing them. I have not seen a more disturbing sight in a long time.

"Koi poochne nahi aaya ki hum zinda hain ki mar gaye." Standing in queue they are waiting to leave for Bihar waiting for transport arranged by a local NGO. They say the 20 lakh crore means nothing, the govt was nowhere to be seen for two months when they were left to die.
