Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Reaches Out To Migrant Workers Amid 'Fake Videos' Panic
NDTV
Tamil Nadu has a sizeable number of migrant worker population, with many from states like Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal among others being employed in various sectors, including construction.
Reaching out to the migrant workers' community in Tamil Nadu, Chief Minister MK Stalin on Tuesday interacted with a group of labourers at a latex unit here.
The Chief Minister's move comes in the wake of apprehensions among the migrant workforce over alleged fake videos of attacks on some of them in the state, which had even prompted the Bihar government to depute an official delegation to take stock of the situation.
Mr Stalin visited Kanam Latex, involved in making hand gloves, in the district and interacted with the migrant workers, enquiring about their well-being, an official release said.
He discussed with them about matters like how long they were staying in Tamil Nadu, if the local people treated them well and whether they had to face any issues.
