Parvathy, a 35-year-old P woman from Anakapalle, Andhra Pradesh, says, "I'm married, and I have two boys who are in Anakapalle, Andhra Pradesh, studying. I came to Chennai along with my husband as a mason, and it's been a week, but I still haven't got a job. The daily wage for female workers is Rs. 800, and for male workers, it's Rs. 900. Female workers only carry cement, soil, wood, and mix cement with water, while male workers do tougher jobs, so they get paid more. We don't know the language, the place, or the people here, but we wait here as a group with our community people to get daily wage work. If someone approaches us for work, we will go.
I understand Tamil a little but can't speak fluently. People in Chennai understand us, so there's no problem commuting by bus. We miss our children, but we've built a house in Andhra, and we have loans to pay.
We are here to work for our children's education, clothing, and books. We've been coming to Chennai for mason work for the last 10-15 years. Our room rent is Rs. 2000-3000 per month for a family. We save money every day, and if we don't get a job even for a day, we may have to go without money.
We are here to support our families, esp for our children's education.
