On Monday night, 23-year-old Mahesh Damor, along with five other migrant workers, realised they have no source of income to rely on in Gujarat’s Surat. So they decided to walk — over 300 km from Surat to his village in Jhalod taluka in Dahod — with two brief breaks in Vadodara and Godhra.
The initial coronavirus measures and the subsequent 21-day lockdown have rendered thousands of migrant workers jobless. According to the Economic Survey of 2018-19, over 90% of the total workforce is ‘informal’. The worrying part is that the Niti Aayog estimates showed that India’s informal sector employs approximately 85 per cent of all workers.
“We were out of work and there were no busses or trains. So we decided to walk to our village,” said Damor, who belongs to the Bhil community. A construction worker, he returned to his family with `1,000 on Wednesday after walking for over 40 hours.

Dropped catches at Dubai: Coach George explains why
HE last two group matches of the ongoing T20 World Cup at the Dubai International Stadium were vital for more than one reason.
