A PWD contractual worker, Deepak, swept the pavement below Delhi’s IIT flyover on Wednesday— the area had served his and the families of 14 other PWD contractual workers as “home” until about 10 days ago, when the Modi government’s G20 beautification drive took over.
The 25-year-old worker told Newslaundry: “After cleaning the area where our families lived, I will leave the city. My family of seven, including my parents and my brother, his wife and kids, left the city two days back. Tonight, I have a train to catch to my village, Jhansi, in Rajasthan.”
