Temporary Shelters

These are temporary shelter villages you can find around the town. Many of the refugees and displaced people live in tents villages set up by NGOs. Luckier ones get to stay in wooden huts built, which can last for 4-5 years, by the time which hopefully their permanent housing would have been settled.

The shelters are clustered tightly together. Sanitation is poor and people get water from common tap like those shown in the picture.

The govt and NGOs have committed land and resources for 10,000 units of housing to be built by 2009. Based on this 3 year timeline, its building 10 houses a day!
