Key quote: "Gujarat Government has refused to give these [refugee] colonies any legitimacy, and the people living in them live in squalor, without basic services – no pucca [proper] roads, electricity, schools, health services, ration shops, or means of a dignified livelihood. Nothing. They also live with no justice and no fundamental rights of citizenship... [they] demand recognition, reparation and rehabilitation from the Indian State."
