Delhi slum demolition leaves hundreds homeless
On Wednesday, June 11, 2025, 344 homes in Govindpuri's Bhoomiheen camp were torn down by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), leaving hundreds—many of them migrant workers—suddenly without shelter in the middle of a brutal heatwave. Residents only got three days' notice and many say they were caught off guard by the early morning move.
Critics, especially from AAP, are also calling out Delhi leaders
The demolition is part of a bigger push to clear "illegal" settlements on government land, backed by recent court orders. But with families now stranded in harsh weather and lacking basics like food and shelter, questions are being raised about how these actions impact low-income communities. Critics, especially from AAP, are also calling out Delhi leaders for their handling of slum demolitions.
