16. CONCLUSION
Cities which is in lack of basic services for urban poor is creating unhygienic conditions. So
BSUP helped urban poor to have basic services like housing units, water supply, sanitation,
education, health facilities etc., From government. This will improvise the living conditions of
urban poor and will help to stop the growth of informal settlements inside the city. If
government would able to finance basic services for all urban poor in cities under BSUP,
slums will get vanished from cities and everyone can have better living conditions
