The daily wage earners who have come from different states are really having a tough time. One of news channels showed how bad they were feeling and some were actually crying out loud. They are out of work and money.. moreover because the trains have closed down they can't go back home.
This actually made my heart cry and I somehow felt blessed for what I have with me at present.

It is the same here with the daily wage earners, no job, no money. But there are no cryings yet.

It's so sad and a little scary to hear of things like this from around the world. We have some people out of work here (US) but we have unemployment benefits that pay them a part of their wages for awhile.
Isn't there any way they can get home again? That would be awful.

It is indeed tough on them. Those in the unorganized sector have no clout.
However, I hear some government, also non-government, help is there but some may fall through the gap.
I have told our helper that we will have her covered during this time despite her not able to come.
It is indeed a blessing to help others in times like these - siva

They don't have any monthly salary. If they get a timed job they get paid
