&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;em&gt;CHENNAI: &lt;/em&gt;Thirteen-year-old Ramesh, a Class 8 student, ran away from his home in Tamil Nadu&#039;s Villupuram district after his mother died. &amp;quot;My father used to beat me often. Unable to bear the torture, I ran away and reached Chennai at midnight and stayed on pavements for a while,&amp;quot; said Ramesh (name changed). Later, an activist took him to an orphanage in Chennai.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
But not many are as lucky as Ramesh. In India, about 0.19% of its population is without a home, says the Census report on the homeless released on Friday. Families that live in open areas like pavements, railway platforms, hume pipes, under flyovers and even in the open at places of worship are treated as homeless. The homeless were counted on the night of February 28, 2011 during the census.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
TN with a homeless population of 0.1% is better than many bigger states and even smaller ones like Delhi or Chandigarh. Nearly 0.39% of the population in Chandigarh and 0.28% in Delhi are homeless. Among the big states, Rajasthan has the maximum percentage of homeless in its population at 0.26%. Of the total homeless people in the country, Uttar Pradesh accounts for the maximum (18.56%), followed by Maharashtra with 11.9%, Rajasthan with 10.24% and Madhya Pradesh with 8.26%. Tamil Nadu has 2.87% of the country&#039;s homeless.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The good news is that the number of homeless people across the country has come down - from about 19 lakh in 2001 to 17 lakh in 2011. There are more than 2.7 lakh children living without a roof above their heads in the country. The number has come down from 3.45 lakh in 2001.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;The decline in number of homeless households is good news but the census would not have taken into account the migrant population living in railway stations and bus stands,&amp;quot; said Paul Singh of Karunalaya, a home for shelterless in Chennai. Many of the migrants work as construction labourers and live mostly on the site itself, he said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Dealing with homeless people was one of the issues in the recent Delhi assembly election campaign with the opposition criticizing the Congress government for not doing enough. The literacy rate among the homeless is poor compared to that of the general population. In the 2011 census, the literacy of the general population was estimated to be 73%, but among the homeless, it was only 39.2%. More than 77% of the homeless population work between three and six months and many of them are employed in non-agriculture work.

Unable to bear the torture, I ran away and reached Chennai at midnight and stayed on pavements for a while,&amp;quot; said Ramesh (name changed). Later, an activist took him to an orphanage in Chennai.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;But not many are as lucky as Ramesh. In India, about 0.19% of its population is without a home, says the Census report on the homeless released on Friday. Families that live in open areas like pavements, railway platforms, hume pipes, under flyovers and even in the open at places of worship are treated as homeless. The homeless were counted on the night of February 28, 2011 during the census.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;TN with a homeless population of 0.1% is better than many bigger states and even smaller ones like Delhi or Chandigarh. Nearly 0.39% of the population in Chandigarh and 0.28% in Delhi are homeless. Among the big states, Rajasthan has the maximum percentage of homeless in its population at 0.26%. Of the total homeless people in the country, Uttar Pradesh accounts for the maximum (18.56%), followed by Maharashtra with 11.9%, Rajasthan with 10.24% and Madhya Pradesh with 8.26%. Tamil Nadu has 2.87% of the country&#039;s homeless.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;The good news is that the number of homeless people across the country has come down - from about 19 lakh in 2001 to 17 lakh in 2011. There are more than 2.7 lakh children living without a roof above their heads in the country. The number has come down from 3.45 lakh in 2001.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;The decline in number of homeless households is good news but the census would not have taken into account the migrant population living in railway stations and bus stands,&amp;quot; said Paul Singh of Karunalaya, a home for shelterless in Chennai. Many of the migrants work as construction labourers and live mostly on the site itself, he said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;Dealing with homeless people was one of the issues in the recent Delhi assembly election campaign with the opposition criticizing the Congress government for not doing enough. The literacy rate among the homeless is poor compared to that of the general population. In the 2011 census, the literacy of the general population was estimated to be 73%, but among the homeless, it was only 39.2%. More than 77% of the homeless population work between three and six months and many of them are employed in non-agriculture work.&lt;/p&gt;&#039;

Later, an activist took him to an orphanage in Chennai.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;But not many are as lucky as Ramesh. In India, about 0.19% of its population is without a home, says the Census report on the homeless released on Friday. Families that live in open areas like pavements, railway platforms, hume pipes, under flyovers and even in the open at places of worship are treated as homeless. The homeless were counted on the night of February 28, 2011 during the census.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;TN with a homeless population of 0.1% is better than many bigger states and even smaller ones like Delhi or Chandigarh. Nearly 0.39% of the population in Chandigarh and 0.28% in Delhi are homeless. Among the big states, Rajasthan has the maximum percentage of homeless in its population at 0.26%. Of the total homeless people in the country, Uttar Pradesh accounts for the maximum (18.56%), followed by Maharashtra with 11.9%, Rajasthan with 10.24% and Madhya Pradesh with 8.26%. Tamil Nadu has 2.87% of the country&#039;s homeless.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;The good news is that the number of homeless people across the country has come down - from about 19 lakh in 2001 to 17 lakh in 2011. There are more than 2.7 lakh children living without a roof above their heads in the country. The number has come down from 3.45 lakh in 2001.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;The decline in number of homeless households is good news but the census would not have taken into account the migrant population living in railway stations and bus stands,&amp;quot; said Paul Singh of Karunalaya, a home for shelterless in Chennai. Many of the migrants work as construction labourers and live mostly on the site itself, he said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;Dealing with homeless people was one of the issues in the recent Delhi assembly election campaign with the opposition criticizing the Congress government for not doing enough. The literacy rate among the homeless is poor compared to that of the general population. In the 2011 census, the literacy of the general population was estimated to be 73%, but among the homeless, it was only 39.2%. More than 77% of the homeless population work between three and six months and many of them are employed in non-agriculture work.&lt;/p&gt;&#039;,

Dealing with homeless people was one of the issues in the recent Delhi assembly election campaign with the opposition criticizing the Congress government for not doing enough. The literacy rate among the homeless is poor compared to that of the general population. In the 2011 census, the literacy of the general population was estimated to be 73%, but among the homeless, it was only 39.2%.

Nearly 2 in 1000 is homeless in India -B Sivakumar
