Even the lifting of the lockdown hasn’t brought much solace to the workers who say that job opportunities in the market are next to none, while their already depressed wages are witnessing further cuts.

Construction workers staged demonstrations across the country on Monday, highlighting their plight amid the COVID-19 pandemic with the lack of savings and absence of any social security measures.

Led by Construction Workers’ Federation of India (CWFI), the workers, majority of which are migrants, demanded direct cash transfers and opposed the dilution of key labour laws, meant for protection of construction workers, who account for the largest share of non-farm jobs after manufacturing.

“Protest was targeted to be observed at around 50,000 work sites, spreading over 22-23 states across the country,” said Sukhbir Singh, president of Centre of Indian Trade Union-backed construction workers’ body. “Initial reports from various states that we are receiving are telling us that the response was overwhelming.”
