Delhi: Migrants, house help seek govt policy boost

Annapurna was a domestic worker in four houses in Delhi before last year’s Covid-19 lockdown and earned up to Rs 10,000 per month. Since then, her struggle to stay afloat went on for almost a year. “My husband lost his job as a waiter and we had to withdraw our 16-year-old son from the private school where he was studying. We were forced to vacate our rented room and move to a smaller place,” the 33-year-old said. After nearly a year, Annapurna finally found work last month but makes just Rs 2,000 in a month.
