&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;With State governments announcing lockdowns and curfews in the wake of rising COVID-19 cases, migrant workers could once again be staring at loss of wages and lack of social protections, labour union leaders and activists said on Thursday.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;A year after lakhs of workers made their way back to their home States after the nationwide lockdown was announced in March 2020, their condition has not changed much, they said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Workers in the informal sector think that if there is a lockdown again, they could be stranded and so have started returning to their villages. After the lockdown last year, many of these workers could not get back their jobs as the contractors who hired them did not want to take the responsibility of paying them lockdown wages,&amp;rdquo; said All-India Trade Union Congress general secretary Amarjeet Kaur.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;She added that unions had received reports of workers leaving from Lucknow, the Delhi-National Capital Region, Karnataka and Maharashtra.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;The government has learnt no lessons. To me it appears that the government knew that the economy was in a bad state last year and they imposed the lockdown with four hours of notice, blamed the bad economy on the pandemic, while playing with the lives of the workers. The workers have learnt that the government won&amp;rsquo;t do anything for them; they are protecting themselves [by leaving cities],&amp;rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;

Migrant workers vulnerable again, say activists -Damini Nath

-The Hindu A year after lakhs of workers made their way back to their home States after the nationwide lockdown was announced in March 2020, their condition has not changed much. With State governments announcing lockdowns and curfews in the wake of rising COVID-19 cases, migrant workers could once again be staring at loss of wages and lack of social protections, labour union leaders and activists said on Thursday. A year after lakhs of workers made their way back to their home States after the nationwide lockdown was announced in March 2020, their condition has not changed much, they said. “Workers in the informal sector think that if there is a lockdown again, they could be stranded and so have started returning to their villages. After the lockdown last year, many of these workers could not get back their jobs as the contractors who hired them did not want to take the responsibility of paying them lockdown wages,” said All-India Trade Union Congress general secretary Amarjeet Kaur. She added that unions had received reports of workers leaving from Lucknow, the Delhi-National Capital Region, Karnataka and Maharashtra. “The government has learnt no lessons. To me it appears that the government knew that the economy was in a bad state last year and they imposed the lockdown with four hours of notice, blamed the bad economy on the pandemic, while playing with the lives of the workers. The workers have learnt that the government won’t do anything for them; they are protecting themselves [by leaving cities],” she said. Please click here to read more.
