| Abstract: | This study analyzes the changes in access to basic services and maps the inter-regional differences in the slums over a period of 5 years in India by using the 2012 NSSO Slum Survey. This study uses the Multidimensional Wellbeing/Deprivation Index (MWD) towards the assessment of accessibility and availability of basic amenities like education, health, sanitation, electricity, and water facilities. The findings reflect that there is an apparent mutuality among different dimensions of deprivation. This situational inspection of slums has a direct policy imperative for intervention to address the regional imbalance in urban living. |
