Translated from Marathi

The slums on the road do not have bathroom facilities. There is also no water. So the children of these homes go to the bathroom anywhere. Where they sit for bathroom, bacteria grow and people fall sick. Because of these sick people, healthy people also fall sick. The slums should stay on the road, but they should stay clean so that people do not fall sick. BMC staff should also take notice.
