HYDERABAD: A recent report compiled by a non-governmental organisation (NGO), shows 3,100 bonded farm workers were freed during 2020; however, what happened to them later is a different story.
They collected this data from local newspapers, saying the number of workers residing in the worst situation may be higher than these figures.
Mostly, one or two members of bonded families fled the farms, which have been turned as concentrated camps, and moved the courts, which tasked police to rescue the workers.
But the author of the report, Akram Khaskheli, leading Hari Welfare Association (HWA), has been unable to find out where did those freed workers go and what were they doing now to survive?
