New meaning for slum areas

In telugu, slum areas are called as muriki vadalu or muriki petalu. It is not right to use such indecent words as meanings for slum areas. They should be called as pedavalla veedhulu. Using indecent words for referring streets of people people is not good.

True. Such indecent words are humiliating poor people. Such meanings must be changed. Humiliating poor people is against Marxism.

If we agree with your arguments, we should think that all the towns and cities in India are dirty. In Hyderabad, municipal corporation used to kill stray dogs for cleanliness program. Amala and other pseudo animal lovers agitated against that program and stopped it. In Kakinada, officers decided to kill stray pigs by using some professional hunters from Anakapalli. Two self pro-claimed animal lovers seized guns from those hunters and handed them to police though those hunters had permission of municipal officers to kill. I read in one news paper that so called animal lovers also arrange biryani feasts at meetings.
