I saw people crying

Agra, India

The daily wage earners who have come from different states are really having a tough time. One of news channels showed how bad they were feeling and some were actually crying out loud. They are out of work and money.. moreover because the trains have closed down they can't go back home. This actually made my heart cry and I somehow felt blessed for what I have with me at present.

It is the same here with the daily wage earners, no job, no money. But there are no cryings yet.

It's so sad and a little scary to hear of things like this from around the world. We have some people out of work here (US) but we have unemployment benefits that pay them a part of their wages for awhile. Isn't there any way they can get home again? That would be awful.

It is very sad for a lot of people to suffer from that, and for no fault of their own.

It is indeed tough on them. Those in the unorganized sector have no clout. However, I hear some government, also non-government, help is there but some may fall through the gap. I have told our helper that we will have her covered during this time despite her not able to come. It is indeed a blessing to help others in times like these - siva

Maybe their salaries are not like when they worked in the office, and you can imagine prices not being controlled when the virus spread.

They don't have any monthly salary. If they get a timed job they get paid

That's harsh. But surely it would be better to arrange some way of getting them home than living on the streets? Possibly checking them for fever etc so they don't send a lot of infected people to non-infected areas.

The daily wagers are really stuck, and 21 day lockdown with no money is going to make matters worse for them, and unfortunately there is no solution for them.

The government should make some provisions for them during this trying times.
