Workers were provided with adequate financial resources, supply of essentials and travel arrangements
Satish Hooda, founder of Raj Roshan, told Media4Growth, “We knew that laying off was never an option and we ensured that they were safe, wherever they were stranded. There were 19 workers that we helped reach home safely. We booked their tickets to Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.” The workers were stranded in Ahmedabad and Mumbai after the lockdowns were enforced. Once the special train services began, arrangements were made for the them to travel to their respective homes.
“Labours traveling to Haryana had to get off at the Delhi station and make travel arrangements by road, to go to their state. I offered my personal vehicles to pick them up from Delhi and drop them at their homes,” said Satish.
The company is also looking to bring them back to work once the work resumes, in the coming days.
