      Why did well off Londoners want to clear the slums?

    Answer:

                      Better off city dwellers demanded that slums should be cleared away. This concern was shown due to following reasons: (i) The vast mass of one-room houses occupied by the poor were seen as a serious threat to public health, they were over-crowded, badly ventilated and lacked sanitation. (ii) They were worried about the fire hazards due to poor housing. (iii) There was a widespread fear of social disorder.
