Abstract
Most of the urban poor in India live in slums and from the point of view of city planners majority of these slums are illegal. These slum dwellers are often called as 'encroachers of public land'. But do these slum dwellers have any justifiable rights when the are evicted out of thier though illegal but only homes. Such 'forcible evictions' render lakhs of people homeless and thereby constitute a serious violation of basic human rights. The paper therefore discusses the rights of slum dwellers vis-a-vis state, and also that how can these rights be enforced.
