Dilemma of the Daily Wagers

-


The backbone of our country is in utter distress!! It is our duty to stand by them in this period and support them to the fullest.

Coronavirus has had a huge impact on the business sector as well as the daily wagers. Many industries are incurring losses during this pandemic as factories are not operational during the lockdown. In absence of any other alternative, many factory workers have been sent home without pay or daily wages.

Migrants who earn their living on daily wages are going through a lot of hardship. They are unable to afford even one square meal a day. Their children are not getting enough nutrition. There has been endless suffering in their lives during this disastrous time. They are forced to sleep on railway platforms due to their unfortunate condition.

There have been many instances where migrants have been run over by trucks and buses; leaving their families in despair and anguish. Some migrants and their children are dying due to starvation and lack of sustenance. Families are torn apart and children stranded.

The government has taken several steps and is trying to ensure that the migrants and daily wagers are properly taken care of; yet, mishaps are happening.  NGOs and other organisations are collaborating with the public to arrange food and shelter for these workers. Set-ups to galvanise support have been raised at many places across the country, where food and shelter is provided for the helpless migrants and their families.

We live a settled and happy life because of these people; however, we are failing in our duty to fulfill their daily needs! Hence, in these catastrophic times; we must help them to earn a living and look after their basic necessities.
