India has hastily erected a wall in Gujarat ahead of a visit by U.S. President Trump and critics say it is designed to block the view of a slum area.
A 1,640-foot-long brick wall has been hastily erected in India’s Gujarat state ahead of a visit by President Trump, with critics saying it was built to block the view of a slum area inhabited by more than 2,000 people.
News reports said the wall was originally planned to be 6-7 feet high but was reduced to 4 feet after it received widespread publicity.Senior government official Bijal Patel said the wall was built “for security reasons” and not to conceal the slum. Authorities on Monday also served eviction notices to 45 families living in another slum area near the cricket stadium.The residents said they were asked to leave because of the upcoming event, but the city’s civic body denied that.
