Provision of Housing at Minimum Rates by the Government: On the site of temporary slums, by populating these people in multistorey buildings, the facility of air, light, toilets will automatically be provided.

3. Proper arrangement of education for children should be done by opening schools in slum area itself. 

4. Free healthcare facility should be provided by opening community health centers near the slum area.

5. Opportunities of employment should be provided in rural areas so that minimum migration may take places towards the urban areas. 

6. Construction of wide roads. 

7. Arrangement of parks if land is available. 

8. Providing loans for self-employment. 

9. Emphasis should be given on adopting family planning programmes.
