The text describes the Chavadi as a terrible place to live. What specific details are given about its poor condition?

Chapter 22 paints a very grim picture of the Chavadi where Amir Shakkar was ordered to stay. The building, constructed by Malik Ambar, was old and dilapidated. It was infested with lizards, house lizards, and poisonous scorpions. The text notes that lepers also stayed there, and dogs would eat leftovers right inside the premises. The back part was filled with garbage and contained seventeen knee-deep holes. Furthermore, the environment was harsh, with rain leaking from above, dampness seeping from the ground below, and a 'total chaos of wind and cold.' The author states it was a place of such trouble that even a dog would not choose to eat there.
