    Addressing The Housing Needs Of Migrant Informal Workers And The Mapping Of Policy Landscape
    (National Law School of India University, 2018) Arora, Kabir
    The dissertation is focused on understanding the existing housing (and living) arrangement of migrant workers in the city of Bengaluru. The participants in the research project were primarily – Assamese and Bengali Muslims, who are engaged in the business of waste-picking. With the understanding of existing arrangements and systems to support each other in the community living, the policies related to the migration and housing (and urban living) are reviewed. In the end, the conclusion is drawn that given policy frameworks fall short in understanding the informal housing arrangement and are not very helpful to better the conditions. There are possible measures suggested to address the immediate concerns of migrant workers living in the periphery of the cities like Bengaluru.
