Also, many poor are still spending night in the open due to sufficient shelters.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Here is the survey report:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Night Shelter Survey in Jaipur city</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Date of Survey- December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2013.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Time &ndash; 8:00 pm- 1:00 pm</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">A rapid assessment of the night shelters of the Jaipur City was done on 30thDecember 2012 and 1st January 2013 by the various teams of 18 students interning at People&rsquo;s union for Civil Liberties. The survey was focused on the night shelters that were recorded in the previous years to be existing in the city. The reports were taken in tabular form and in the questionnaire, formulated on the guidelines of the Hon&rsquo;ble Supreme Court of India.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">This survey recorded the presence and conditions of the pre- existing Shelters, the homeless residing outside the shelters and the homeless waiting for the shelters to be constructed either in form of concrete based structures or in the form of tents.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The data was recorded after the observation by the students, interaction with the guards, the residents and the homeless and destitute staying outside the shelters. The survey done this time showed no better situation around.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the major issues that emerged through the spot study are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Unhygienic surroundings! Poor sanitation! Unsafe drinking water! environment full of hazard! and the list is endless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the critical issues that emerged through the teams&rsquo; observations are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The women were not provided with safe and separate shelters, which is why the team could find very few women coming to the night shelter to stay.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">There is great lack of publicity by the authorities resulting into lack of awareness about the existence of the shelters meant for homeless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">In several places there was no trace of night shelters as yet. The team interacted with the local people and they had no idea of the night shelter at that place. Even in places where there were night shelters, its residents were not given proper water and sanitation facilities.The food was also not in good condition for the residents.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Problem of access has also been found in several night shelters. It was very difficult for people to find these shelters and many did not know about the existence of the night shelter in the area. This is the reason that many people were forced to sleep on the roads, railway platforms and in many unhygienic places.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Observations of the Night Shelters</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Zone- MotiDungari</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Shelter No. 1- Gandhi GharBanghar Hospital</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Type: It is of permanent type. The rooms are cleaned on the regular basis.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Access: It is accessible and approachable to the needy.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">It is near S.M.S hospital and Bangar hospital, which are one of the populated areas of the city.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Space for women: There is a separate room available for women.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Sanitation: The bathrooms &amp; toilets are not separate for men and women. Sanitation facility is available inside the night shelter. The facility of electricity &amp; water (by the medium of tap) is provided in there. Bathrooms are separate from the toilets. Water facility was not at the running stage when we arrived at the night shelter on 01 Jan, 2013 but we were told that the water is not available since two days only. It was followed by the situation that the people in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo; had to use the &lsquo;sulabh complex&rsquo; sanitation facility which was chargeable at Rs. 5/- and Rs. 10/-.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Food Facilities:Food is provided once in a day (in the evening at around 8 pm) which was free of cost. The quality &amp; quantity of food is good and sufficient, as per the people living in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo;. In the food, dal, sabji, 5 chapattis and pickle is provided on a regular basis, which according to me is sufficient as per the reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Electricity:The tube-lights were well lit up. The quantity of tube-lights &amp; bulbs are proper and sufficient.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Bedding facility:They are sufficient in number but the quality is not so proper. When we visited the place, we saw that the mattresses are torn and not much tidy. The quilts were also of the similar condition.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">View of visitors: They were sufficed with the facilities provided to them. But demanded for the cleanliness of the rooms and washrooms on a regular basis, which could be said as appropriate by a reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Our view about the shelter: The environment at the place is clean and hygienic to the extent but not much.

Also, many poor are still spending night in the open due to sufficient shelters.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Here is the survey report:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Night Shelter Survey in Jaipur city</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Date of Survey- December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2013.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Time &ndash; 8:00 pm- 1:00 pm</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">A rapid assessment of the night shelters of the Jaipur City was done on 30thDecember 2012 and 1st January 2013 by the various teams of 18 students interning at People&rsquo;s union for Civil Liberties. The survey was focused on the night shelters that were recorded in the previous years to be existing in the city. The reports were taken in tabular form and in the questionnaire, formulated on the guidelines of the Hon&rsquo;ble Supreme Court of India.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">This survey recorded the presence and conditions of the pre- existing Shelters, the homeless residing outside the shelters and the homeless waiting for the shelters to be constructed either in form of concrete based structures or in the form of tents.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The data was recorded after the observation by the students, interaction with the guards, the residents and the homeless and destitute staying outside the shelters. The survey done this time showed no better situation around.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the major issues that emerged through the spot study are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Unhygienic surroundings! Poor sanitation! Unsafe drinking water! environment full of hazard! and the list is endless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the critical issues that emerged through the teams&rsquo; observations are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The women were not provided with safe and separate shelters, which is why the team could find very few women coming to the night shelter to stay.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">There is great lack of publicity by the authorities resulting into lack of awareness about the existence of the shelters meant for homeless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">In several places there was no trace of night shelters as yet. The team interacted with the local people and they had no idea of the night shelter at that place. Even in places where there were night shelters, its residents were not given proper water and sanitation facilities.The food was also not in good condition for the residents.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Problem of access has also been found in several night shelters. It was very difficult for people to find these shelters and many did not know about the existence of the night shelter in the area. This is the reason that many people were forced to sleep on the roads, railway platforms and in many unhygienic places.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Observations of the Night Shelters</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Zone- MotiDungari</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Shelter No. 1- Gandhi GharBanghar Hospital</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Type: It is of permanent type.

Sanitation facility is available inside the night shelter. The facility of electricity &amp; water (by the medium of tap) is provided in there. Bathrooms are separate from the toilets. Water facility was not at the running stage when we arrived at the night shelter on 01 Jan, 2013 but we were told that the water is not available since two days only. It was followed by the situation that the people in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo; had to use the &lsquo;sulabh complex&rsquo; sanitation facility which was chargeable at Rs. 5/- and Rs. 10/-.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Food Facilities:Food is provided once in a day (in the evening at around 8 pm) which was free of cost. The quality &amp; quantity of food is good and sufficient, as per the people living in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo;. In the food, dal, sabji, 5 chapattis and pickle is provided on a regular basis, which according to me is sufficient as per the reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Electricity:The tube-lights were well lit up. The quantity of tube-lights &amp; bulbs are proper and sufficient.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Bedding facility:They are sufficient in number but the quality is not so proper. When we visited the place, we saw that the mattresses are torn and not much tidy. The quilts were also of the similar condition.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">View of visitors: They were sufficed with the facilities provided to them. But demanded for the cleanliness of the rooms and washrooms on a regular basis, which could be said as appropriate by a reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Our view about the shelter: The environment at the place is clean and hygienic to the extent but not much. It could be considered just a living environment for the people in the shelter. Food quality is good but could be made better. The night shelter might be a better stay as to other night shelters, as per the present scenario in the night shelters but this cannot be considered as the best, one could get.

Also, many poor are still spending night in the open due to sufficient shelters.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Here is the survey report:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Night Shelter Survey in Jaipur city</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Date of Survey- December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2013.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Time &ndash; 8:00 pm- 1:00 pm</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">A rapid assessment of the night shelters of the Jaipur City was done on 30thDecember 2012 and 1st January 2013 by the various teams of 18 students interning at People&rsquo;s union for Civil Liberties. The survey was focused on the night shelters that were recorded in the previous years to be existing in the city. The reports were taken in tabular form and in the questionnaire, formulated on the guidelines of the Hon&rsquo;ble Supreme Court of India.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">This survey recorded the presence and conditions of the pre- existing Shelters, the homeless residing outside the shelters and the homeless waiting for the shelters to be constructed either in form of concrete based structures or in the form of tents.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The data was recorded after the observation by the students, interaction with the guards, the residents and the homeless and destitute staying outside the shelters. The survey done this time showed no better situation around.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the major issues that emerged through the spot study are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Unhygienic surroundings! Poor sanitation! Unsafe drinking water! environment full of hazard! and the list is endless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Some of the critical issues that emerged through the teams&rsquo; observations are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">The women were not provided with safe and separate shelters, which is why the team could find very few women coming to the night shelter to stay.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">There is great lack of publicity by the authorities resulting into lack of awareness about the existence of the shelters meant for homeless.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">In several places there was no trace of night shelters as yet. The team interacted with the local people and they had no idea of the night shelter at that place. Even in places where there were night shelters, its residents were not given proper water and sanitation facilities.The food was also not in good condition for the residents.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Problem of access has also been found in several night shelters. It was very difficult for people to find these shelters and many did not know about the existence of the night shelter in the area. This is the reason that many people were forced to sleep on the roads, railway platforms and in many unhygienic places.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><strong>Observations of the Night Shelters</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Zone- MotiDungari</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify"><em>Shelter No. 1- Gandhi GharBanghar Hospital</em></div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Type: It is of permanent type.

Sanitation facility is available inside the night shelter. The facility of electricity &amp; water (by the medium of tap) is provided in there. Bathrooms are separate from the toilets. Water facility was not at the running stage when we arrived at the night shelter on 01 Jan, 2013 but we were told that the water is not available since two days only. It was followed by the situation that the people in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo; had to use the &lsquo;sulabh complex&rsquo; sanitation facility which was chargeable at Rs. 5/- and Rs. 10/-.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Food Facilities:Food is provided once in a day (in the evening at around 8 pm) which was free of cost. The quality &amp; quantity of food is good and sufficient, as per the people living in the &lsquo;rain basera&rsquo;. In the food, dal, sabji, 5 chapattis and pickle is provided on a regular basis, which according to me is sufficient as per the reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Electricity:The tube-lights were well lit up. The quantity of tube-lights &amp; bulbs are proper and sufficient.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Bedding facility:They are sufficient in number but the quality is not so proper. When we visited the place, we saw that the mattresses are torn and not much tidy. The quilts were also of the similar condition.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">View of visitors: They were sufficed with the facilities provided to them. But demanded for the cleanliness of the rooms and washrooms on a regular basis, which could be said as appropriate by a reasonable man.</div><div style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify">Our view about the shelter: The environment at the place is clean and hygienic to the extent but not much. It could be considered just a living environment for the people in the shelter. Food quality is good but could be made better. The night shelter might be a better stay as to other night shelters, as per the present scenario in the night shelters but this cannot be considered as the best, one could get.

Jaipur: Homeless freeze in the cold

Published on Jan 14, 2013   Modified on Jan 14, 2013

-Pratirodh Bureau With the mercury plummeting, thousands of homeless people continue to bear the harsh winter in the absence of sufficient night shelters in Jaipur city.   A survey released by the People's Union of Civil Liberties (PUCL), which voluntarily monitors the condition of night shelters, claims that 40% of these shelters have improper bedding facility. Also, many poor are still spending night in the open due to sufficient shelters.   Here is the survey report:   Night Shelter Survey in Jaipur city   Date of Survey- December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2013.   Time – 8:00 pm- 1:00 pm   A rapid assessment of the night shelters of the Jaipur City was done on 30thDecember 2012 and 1st January 2013 by the various teams of 18 students interning at People’s union for Civil Liberties. The survey was focused on the night shelters that were recorded in the previous years to be existing in the city. The reports were taken in tabular form and in the questionnaire, formulated on the guidelines of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India.    This survey recorded the presence and conditions of the pre- existing Shelters, the homeless residing outside the shelters and the homeless waiting for the shelters to be constructed either in form of concrete based structures or in the form of tents.   The data was recorded after the observation by the students, interaction with the guards, the residents and the homeless and destitute staying outside the shelters. The survey done this time showed no better situation around.    Some of the major issues that emerged through the spot study are as follows:   Unhygienic surroundings! Poor sanitation! Unsafe drinking water! environment full of hazard! and the list is endless.   Some of the critical issues that emerged through the teams’ observations are as follows:   The women were not provided with safe and separate shelters, which is why the team could find very few women coming to the night shelter to stay.    There is great lack of publicity by the authorities resulting into lack of awareness about the existence of the shelters meant for homeless.   In several places there was no trace of night shelters as yet. The team interacted with the local people and they had no idea of the night shelter at that place. Even in places where there were night shelters, its residents were not given proper water and sanitation facilities.The food was also not in good condition for the residents.    Problem of access has also been found in several night shelters. It was very difficult for people to find these shelters and many did not know about the existence of the night shelter in the area. This is the reason that many people were forced to sleep on the roads, railway platforms and in many unhygienic places.   Observations of the Night Shelters   Zone- MotiDungari   Shelter No. 1- Gandhi GharBanghar Hospital   Type: It is of permanent type. The rooms are cleaned on the regular basis.   Access: It is accessible and approachable to the needy.   It is near S.M.S hospital and Bangar hospital, which are one of the populated areas of the city.    Space for women: There is a separate room available for women.   Sanitation: The bathrooms & toilets are not separate for men and women. Sanitation facility is available inside the night shelter. The facility of electricity & water (by the medium of tap) is provided in there. Bathrooms are separate from the toilets. Water facility was not at the running stage when we arrived at the night shelter on 01 Jan, 2013 but we were told that the water is not available since two days only. It was followed by the situation that the people in the ‘rain basera’ had to use the ‘sulabh complex’ sanitation facility which was chargeable at Rs. 5/- and Rs. 10/-.   Food Facilities:Food is provided once in a day (in the evening at around 8 pm) which was free of cost. The quality & quantity of food is good and sufficient, as per the people living in the ‘rain basera’. In the food, dal, sabji, 5 chapattis and pickle is provided on a regular basis, which according to me is sufficient as per the reasonable man.   Electricity:The tube-lights were well lit up. The quantity of tube-lights & bulbs are proper and sufficient.   Bedding facility:They are sufficient in number but the quality is not so proper. When we visited the place, we saw that the mattresses are torn and not much tidy. The quilts were also of the similar condition.   View of visitors: They were sufficed with the facilities provided to them. But demanded for the cleanliness of the rooms and washrooms on a regular basis, which could be said as appropriate by a reasonable man.   Our view about the shelter: The environment at the place is clean and hygienic to the extent but not much. It could be considered just a living environment for the people in the shelter. Food quality is good but could be made better. The night shelter might be a better stay as to other night shelters, as per the present scenario in the night shelters but this cannot be considered as the best, one could get.

The people nearby this place have a notion that no rain basera is provided by the state government here and if any person needs to go to any rain basera, then he needs to go to the city to find one. After seeing and analyzing this place, we came to the conclusion that the people have no clue about the existence of rain baseras provided by the state government.

Observations   Through this survey it was found that the night shelters were not taken care of by the responsible authorities. The team felt that there should be some monitoring by the side of the community too so that a pressure could be created for the proper functioning of the night shelters.    The observations were not satisfactory because most of the night shelters were found in the form of tents. There were places where the night shelters have not come up as yet. The night shelters that were found to be in working condition were not properly laced with the facilities as per the guidelines of the hon’ble supreme court of India.   The orders provide that there should be proper bedding and electricity facilities which were nowhere found to be satisfactory. Somewhere the beddings were not enough in no. and where they were present also; it was not clean enough to be used for humans. Poor sanitation facilities were seen in the shelters that were surveyed.   The drinking water was not changed for days and at some places for weeks while some places had no drinking water available. Other issues like unavailability of security guards and issues related with safety of women, non separate shelters for families, the misplacing of belongings, lack of lockers, etc were found to be the major cause for the people not preferring night shelters.   ACKNOWLEDGEMENT   The survey was conducted by the following interns of the People’s Union for Civil Liberties, Rajasthan:   Priya Singh- AzimPremji University, Bengaluru Chetan Kumar Meena- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala MananParmar-  Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala Manu Gupta- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala AnkitBishnoi- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala MohitChaudhari- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala JanistDhanol- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala MehulBansal- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala Anukram Singh- Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala VishudhaPrakash- Chanakya National Law University, Patna Shreya-  Chanakya National Law University, Patna Prithvipal- Chanakya National Law University, Patna SiddhantSaxena- Chanakya National Law University, Patna Manoj Kumar Meena- Indira Gandhi National Open University, New Delhi HeenaKausar- Central University of Jharkhand DeeptiChatterjee- Central University of Jharkhand RashmiKumari-  Central University of Jharkhand SakshiSrivastava- Jodhpur National University, Jodhpur Akhilendra Singh, O.P.
