slums are considered to be a threat to public health. Since they are filled with illiterate people, they are not aware about the cleanliness of the environment. so they don 't maintain cleanliness. they do not have a proper sanitation facility. eventually all these factors combine and pose threats to the public health.
Slums were considered a threat to public health because of overcrowding, poor sanitation, lack of access to clean water, and inadequate waste disposal systems, which could lead to the spread of diseases such as cholera, typhoid, and tuberculosis. Additionally, the close proximity of people living in slums increased the risk of contagion and made it difficult to implement effective public health measures.
