And in order to deal with it, the Indian government, with the help of private companies, is using drones. Last year, the government of Odisha has been using drones to map out the urban slums. Also, the govt. was ready to give titles to 2,00,000 households in urban slums and those on the outskirts of cities by the end of 2018.
