About 300,000 little-seen workers (Y) perform a vital role (X) for the Indian capital. Most Indian cities have no formal system of X. In many cities Y provide the service. According to some estimates Y provide the service for 80% of Mumbai. Y are not paid by the state, relying instead on donations from the communities they serve and on meager profits from the sale of discarded items.
For every hundred residents of Delhi, there is one person engaged in X.
