Hindi speaking migrants in Gujarat

One ever stinking, jobless, useless komaaaaaaaaaaali Buffoon who always target modi and expect him to tender an apology for whatever happened in Godhra. Can this impotent coward ask such apology from his state Chief minister for brutal killing of number of political workers of opposition parties ?

Who cares for what you North Indian peaxbrains do to each other in the name of hyndu...muxlim....hyndu.., you wayside defecator ?

Hyndu hyndi speakers as well as muxlim hyndi speakers are just the same - big time dumbos who just can't even understand that they live in the worst possible living conditions in the entire world !

And big time thieves like the BJP under Modi, the RSS and the Congress party will always be there to take full advantage of such donkey brains with hyndu....muxlim....hyndu...chrittin.... chants !

And, hey dumbo, you brought in Gita Gopinaths name the other day after you happened to notice it somewhere in your hyndi tabloid.

But...why did you run away with your stinking mouth after I referred in detail to what Gita Gopinath said about the state of Kerala at Harvard University in a plenary session on Indian states ?

Ventured to say something that you do not know about and got trapped ?

Migrant workers slave in Gujarat !
by piri on Oct 09, 2018 08:35 AM  | Hide replies

A verbatim extract from the report of former Planning commission member C.P Chandrasekhar and economist Jayati Ghosh on migrant workers in *highly developed* Gujarat:

A look at the working conditions in some of the places where the migrant workers work and live, tell a very grim tale.

The Alang shipbreaking yard in Bhavnagar, located in the coastal Saurashtra region of Gujarat, is one of the biggest such yards in the world. Old ships—oil tankers, freight carriers, luxury cruisers, defence ships from all over the world come here for scrapping to recover steel and other recyclable/reusable materials. An army of over 30,000 migrant workers tear down the ships with gas cutters, saws, hammers, pulling massive steel plates and iron blocks with chains. Local workers don’t work in these dangerous yards. Migrants from Gorakhpur district in Uttar Pradesh, Ganjam district in Odisha, Munger, Saran, Gaya districts of Bihar, different districts of Jharkhand come to work at Alang.

In a year 15-20 deaths are known to occur in these yards besides a large number of accidents every month. As recently as March 2014, two workers were killed and 3 critically injured when a huge steel plate fell on them while they were working in the night at one of the plots in the yard. The dead workers were from Ganjam district of Odisha. The most common causes for fatal accidents in Alang are falling

steel plates, falls from great heights and fires while cutting open the gas or oil filled pipes in the old ship. Besides the accidents, workers in these yards are exposed to high levels of toxic fumes and chemicals from paints and oils in the ships and deadly asbestos fibres that are used in the engine rooms for insulation.

A report by a two member Supreme Court appointed committee in 2006 had revealed that 16% of workers in Alang may have contracted asbestosis, a debilitating lung disease caused by exposure to asbestos fibres. The National Institute of Occupational Health, Ahmedabad diagnosed 16 cases of asbestosis in Alang in 2006. But till date its not known whether the workers have been compensated or the status of their health since all information has been stonewalled despite repeated Right To Information (RTI) requests by Raghunath Manwar, a former power plant worker and occupational health activist.

In Godhra town of Panchmahal district in Gujarat quartz stone crushing units are wreaking havoc on the environment and health of workers. As early as 1980, a study by the National Institute for Occupational Health (NIOH) revealed that the levels of silica dust (released during the process of crushing) in the working environment was so high that workers employed there for even six months will contract a fatal lung disease called Silicosis. Workers in these units are mostly migrants from Alirajpur and Jhabua districts in Madhya Pradesh, from Banswada in Rajasthan in

Chhotaudepur and Dahod districts in Gujarat. They work under unhealthy work conditions and get exposed to high levels of fine silica dust and are sent home after they fall sick.

Many don’t get ID cards or any proof of employment in these units or pay slips. Despite being covered under Employees’ State Insurance (ESI) Act, most workers are not issued ESI cards or even know that they are entitled to get coverage under the Act. In cases where proofs exist of employment, the employers falsify the attendance muster to show less than 180 days of work, which means workers can’t seek ESI assistance as the Act mandates 6 months or 180 days of work to seek compensation under the Act. Reports about their illnesses get noticed, if any, when the workers start dying in their villages.

Peoples’ Training & Research Centre (PTRC) based in Vadodara has been tracking some of these cases of migrant workers who come to work in Godhra. In 2011, PTRC filed a complaint before National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) regarding five migrant workers (all tribals) from Dahod who had been diagnosed with silicosis and had died without receiving any compensation from ESI. NHRC after hearing the case for two years in 2013 directed the Gujarat government to pay Rs 5 lakhs compensation to the families of the dead workers. In April 2014, PTRC filed a RTI request with the Chief Secretary of Government of of Gujarat seeking information about the status of the compensation and was

informed that the state government has decided not to enforce the NHRC directions without giving any reasons.

In another complaint filed by one Juwan Singh from Madhya Pradesh with NHRC, the Commission had directed the Government of Gujarat to pay Rs 3 lakhs each to the families of 238 migrant workers from Madhya Pradesh who had worked in Godhra and died due to Silicosis. Even in this instance, Gujarat govt. refused to implement NHRC directions arguing that the workers from Madhya Pradesh may have worked in some other state and contracted the disease and therefore Gujarat govt. will not pay any compensation as it is not responsible. In Chhotaudepur, over 1000 workers have perished without proper diagnosis and more may have contracted the disease and are dying a slow and painful death in obscurity.

Incidentally, Godhra happens to be the same infamous town where burning of a coach of Sabarmati Express train led to the Gujarat pogrom of 2002. Till date Modi refuses to take any responsibility for the riots and the mass murders and rapes. For over 30 years now migrant workers in large numbers are dying slow and painful deaths in these death traps of stone crushing units in Godhra. And even in this instance Mr Modi refuses to take any responsibility for the deaths of the workers by denying them any compensation and justice. Nor is the media interested. There is no blood and gore when breathless workers cough themselves to death.
