Getting Labour Back to Work!

The availability of labour has been a self-created blunder which has hurt our country?s ability to get back to work. Paradoxically, while our businesses are feeling the pinch of the?unavailability of labour?, we are also staring at staggering unemployment!

Economies in Europe are getting back to work with even restaurants and movie theatres being opened. China is already at its near normal capacity of work. But an inadequately planned lockdown with scant eye on details of the consequences has done us in. This has resulted in nearly 2.5 million migrant labour returning only to the state of Uttar Pradesh, of which 75 per cent are from Maharashtra. Totally 9.1 million migrants have been transported by trains and road transport during May as per the government! Several more have walked their way home. The entire ?Make in India? workforce has been disrupted adding to the losses of the businesses which were ready to commence operations.
