NEW DELHI: As Delhi's winter chill sets in, the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB) has launched an ambitious winter action plan, setting up 235 pagoda tents to shelter the homeless during the coldest months of the year.
While officials highlight the initiative's extensive reach, providing essential services such as mattresses, blankets, meals, and health check-ups, homeless residents have voiced concerns, expressing frustration about the ongoing challenges they face in the absence of adequate support.
The government's winter action plan, unveiled on November 15, 2024, aims to help the homeless by establishing a total of 250 shelters, with 15 tents kept in reserve for emergencies. Additionally, permanent shelter facilities are being upgraded with amenities like geysers for hot water and 24/7 security.
Yet, despite these efforts, many homeless individuals with their last year's experience say the government's actions fall short of their immediate needs.
