Also what Government built housing in India? Most of the Government apartments are now only for the public sector workers. Not even general public.
There are many Government built staff apartments which are completely abandoned after the state eneterprises were privatized.
They destroy slums in central areas, the capitalists buy it for cheap for luxury apartments and move all the people living to the periphery where they don’t have access to jobs because transportation is too expensive.
In many ways not that different from the US. Gentrification and all. Except less use of market and more brute force of the state, primitive accumulation kind of.
