Covid lockdown: Migrant worker from Odisha takes gold loan of Rs 30,000 to buy food

Migrant worker Sushil Raut has had no work since the Delhi government imposed a lockdown on April 17. The plumber from Kendrapada, Odisha, who lives in a rented room in a south Delhi slum with his family has not received any assistance from anywhere, either. Raut took a loan of Rs 30,000 from Muthoot Finance against his wife’s gold ornaments on Monday to feed his family of four, which includes two young children. “There’s no point going back home. Travelling involves (Covid) risk. The Odisha government has imposed a lockdown too, so there won’t be any work there, either. I took the loan because I have no income,” Raut told The Telegraph.

Coronavirus lockdown: Ration cards hurdle to grain for migrants

Thousands of migrant workers in cities such as Delhi and Calcutta are unable to access subsidised foodgrains either because they don’t have ration cards or because the cards they have are registered elsewhere. After sitting idle for over a week, migrant construction worker Guna Nayak was happy to get a day’s work to clean a showroom in South Extension in Delhi. The owner was “very kind hearted,” Guna said. The wage of Rs 500 was Rs 100 more than what he usually gets from construction work. More importantly, Guna got 3kg rice and 5kg wheat as a gesture of help.
