Cold wave in Delhi kills 3 homeless

NEW DELHI: Three homeless people were found dead in the capital on Monday even as lieutenant governor Najeeb Jung asked the authorities to ensure shelters for all those spending nights under the open sky .
Holistic Development, an NGO which works for the homeless, said officials have been informed about the deaths.

One of the bodies was found on the premises of GTB Hospital in the morning, the hospital authorities said. "He had been staying near the mortuary since the last couple of days and was found dead today in a park near Gate No. 3," an official said. "It seems that he died due to hypothermia."

The other deaths were reported from Kirti Nagar and Bapa Nagar. The identities of the deceased, aged 50-60 years, are not confirmed yet .

The government has set up 223 night shelters but many people are still seen out in the open. Officials said 12 more shelters would be made operational in the next few days as DDA had provided 10 of its buildings for the purpose.

Jung directed all senior officers of Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board to inspect the shelters.
