I will never forget the tragedy the migrant laborers had to undergo. I did not visit or witness any of this personally but some images like the above came up and they will keep haunting me ...I hope the poor in my country get back on their feet switfly and have better times in 2021.
The passage below from an article in The Hindu made me reflect . Saving it here as i do not want to forget this memory anytime soon.
"Perhaps it was humanity they looked forward to when they got home, a humanity which the city had fooled to display.In their minds , the village was the place where they were not a statistic . Where people knew each other by their names even if it was stigmatized by caste "
