A few officers and people came to us and we were told to fill certain forms.
We had to go to the camps to collect our IDs which we have been told will be useful even after the elections are over,” said Paan Chand Mishra, 49, who lives in a night shelter in the Kashmiri Gate area.
According to official data, there are more than 60,000 homeless people in the national capital. However, despite hard effort by the commission, many homeless will still remain unable to exercise their rights for various reasons.
Bharti said that to handle such a large number of homeless persons across Delhi was not an easy job and several NGOs associated with the commission helped get the data on the ground.
“Many NGOs which are associated with us worked on the ground to get detailed information regarding address, occupation, native place and other details of these people.
