It is raining cats and dogs since yesterday night. Rain stops for a while but restarts again. The outpour becomes torrential and then it subsides to stop altogether.

New Delhi is to India what America is to the world. A large number of poor migrant labor flock to New Delhi in search of work and they live in shacks in Delhi serving the affluent households, offices or in small self-employed ventures as petty traders.
