Most of these families are living in a very poorly condition at slums or on street corners without basic supports.

This town has full of heart ,people are basically belongs to the middle class . There are also rich and poor people all around . City Kolkata is know for its busy traffic ,huge population ,warm weather and poverty around the street corners! It is a great place to visit for every tourist coming to India.During the Camp on every weekends, there would guided cultural city trip would be organised. No extra fees!!
