Aligarh: The observance of May 1 as Labour Day brings no hope for betterment to about 1 lakh labourers employed in Aligarh’s lock and hardware units when seminars, conferences and rallies were organized in different parts of the city to mark Labour  Day. Getting education for their children aged 8 to 14 years is a mirage. For earning little sums, they pay a heavy price in terms of their health by working in closed room under unhygienic conditions.

Busy in searching rags from the garbage container of Nagar Nigam kept at the roadsides in Aligarh Development Colony of Marris  road, Labour Day meant another day for Suneeta and RajKumari, labourers engaged in Brick kiln in the unorganized sector.  Aligarh district ranking second in the state for  labours engaged in both the organized and unorganized sectors.  The offices of district magistrate and deputy labour commissioner have not come out with a single plan or project which can act as a silver lining in the process of welfare of labour. Although government has introduced more than 17 welfare scheme for labour but they are running on papers as out of 1 lakh, only 8000 labour are registered in labour department.

Belonging to large families, Suneeta work with her three sisters, all aged below 20 years and involved in rags picking business, to provide evening meals for her family.  Raj Kumari is the eldest among her six brothers and sisters.  Her other brothers are also engaged in a polishing locks factory.
