Lockdown support reaches migrant family
A survey supported by Zenith found that most migrant workers returning to Madhya Pradesh during the lockdown had not received the government assistance announced for them. Close to 60 volunteers helped workers navigate immediate needs and administrative barriers.
The report also describes individual interventions. In one case, Zenith helped a worker named Anurag contact district officials and obtain money needed to buy medicines for his wife.
