Here in Delhi's Adarsh Nagar, on a sprawling ground near Delhi Jal Board, are a cluster of shanties housing refugees from Pakistan. About 600 Hindus, who fled religious persecution, have been living here for five years. For years, they have been surviving on little. Their children don't go to school, their women find no work, their men earn just enough to make ends meet. Almost all of them sell mobile covers for a living. Their plight would have attracted little attention had it not been for social media. On 25 June, a social worker posted two images of the camp on Twitter tagging Delhi MLA Kapil Mishra, along with the prime minister and some union ministers, saying that kids in the camp are falling sick because of severe dehydration in the absence of electricity.
