Answer:
As the pandemic wreaks havoc around the globe, no one is safe — the rich or the poor, the haves or the have-nots. The underprivileged are the worst hit especially in India. The migrant labour population has taken a beating in our country, with stories of men and women and even children walking miles to go home across States. They have lost their jobs and their livelihoods and governments are extending help with doles which are grossly inadequate. Cannot authorities use their labour locally by employing them in conservancy work, unskilled maintenance work in hospitals (if they are willing) and other locally available government-supervised work temporarily and with all the safety precautions? They can even be diverted to help agricultural operations where there is no ban, so that they will get their wages and will not go hungry. This will help ease inter-State migration pressure and the risk of disease spread. This will also lighten the financial burden of governments.
