The New Indian Express
|August 23, 2024
OVER 100 residents of the corporation-run shelter at Kannappar Thidal, who have been staying there for over 20 years now, took to the streets on Thursday, demanding houses.
-
They were detained briefly by the city police and let off later in the day. Residents whom TNIE spoke to said they had been awaiting house allotments for several years now.
As many as 128 families are lodged in the corporation shelter at present. One hall at the home has been divided into small compartments. They said the space available to each family is scant, and in some compartments, they can't even stretch their legs. The families were originally pavement dwellers and were brought to the shelter in 2002.
