Such settlements do face a plethora of problems and would mention them one by one:

1.lack of proper housing and sanitation facilities. These people though get access to a roof to cover themselves but the conditions they live in are quite extreme and in a country like India with such large population its almost impossible to cater to the needs of such people who migrate from villages in search of jobs but find no place to live in the cities.

2.Lack of proper drinking water.similar to our first point the availability of drinking water is a very big concern and this causes them to fall ill and hence their health also depreciates.

3.On top of all this comes the excessive crime rates and the lack of educational facilities though these facilities can be thought of as a luxury as compared to the other issues they face but are important enough to be mentioned.

Regarding potential approaches to tackle this issue:

The first thing is to alert the government regarding these issues and make people understand that such issues are also important and create a channel between the sufferers and the government so that their issues can be addressed to the government.

following this the government can bring about changes in the sector of education cleanliness, sanitation and also provide them with shelter homes which are temporary with better facilities so that such people who migrate from the villages dont have to live in the slums until they find themselves eligible enough to find a house with basic amenities.Finally even we as citizens can make sure that these people can live a better life if we are vocal about such issues and send the concerned authorities to the places where the people are unable to address their issues by themselves.
