The migrant labourers have indeed earned money, which fulfil their family requirements .Their children have enrolled in the local school because of income earned by them by working in faraway places. But this Covid pandemic lockdown had changed their attitude towards working as migrated workers as they experienced in human conditions on shelter, food and facilities related to transportation. So many have struggled and while travelling to their native places as they got affected by disease and some people died because of dehydration and other issues.
