NEW DELHI: “I earn 500 rupees every day by cooking, washing dishes and other work in the farmers’ agitation. Along with boys from my village, I am working on a daily wages basis,” Shekhar Sharma, a resident of Shamli district, was employed at the airport but returned home during the Coronavirus pandemic, after he was sacked. Left to his own devices, he has found employment in the farmers agitation, albeit on a daily wages basis.
“I worked at the airport for the past three years, but in the corona period, the company sacked me,” he added. “There is no other earning member in the house and I have to take care of my mother and brother.”
Sharma isn’t an aberration. Many other people like him are earning a living thanks to the farmers’ agitation, IANS
