Whose night shelter is it anyway?

Remarkable

Good idea.  Inview of the cold  these kind of shelters should be mooted in other places. If not permanent ,temporary.

i would agree with mr.shahid if such are meant for the homeless than it should reach to them first then if situation allows it can be further allocated .the authorities should instead impart id's for the deserving beneficiaries which would be subjected to renewation after a week or two .this way ,it may not bring change substantialy but would provide temporary relief for homeless masses .and wat about those labourers  who are contracted with construction companies and aren't provided with sufficient accommodation facilities and their kids are wandering  on streets while their parents are working . 

this topic comes up for debate every winter in delhi. ofcourse the delhi govt. takes note of it each time..what do other cities do? any idea?

NGOs working in this area hv there parameters and so many (needy) get filtered in the process. so, the issue remains as it is.
