Industries in Coimbatore report that labourers have started leaving for their home States
Migrant workers have started heading back to their home States, fearing another lockdown because of the second wave of COVID-19, report industries in Coimbatore. “Nearly 100 workers employed at the Kurichi SIDCO Industrial estate have left Coimbatore for their home States in the last three or four days. They left in two buses,” says P. Nallathambi, president of the Coimbatore SIDCO Industrial Estate Manufacturers’ Welfare Association. There are reports of another lockdown, and workers fear that they will be here without work, he said. The government should clarify that there will not be another lockdown, he said.More Related News
