New Delhi: BSP chief Mayawati on Sunday urged the Centre and state governments to provide adequate opportunity to labourers, who, she said are somehow working under MNREGA to feed their family.
आँकड़े फिर गवाह हैं कि देश के करोड़ों श्रमिक संघषशील जीवन व मेहनत की रोटी खाने की परम्परा पर लगातार डटे हैं व खासकर यूपी व बिहार में घर लौटे प्रवासी श्रमिक मनरेगा के तहत श्रम करके परिवार का पेट जैसे-तैसे पाल रहे हैं। अतः केन्द्र व राज्य सरकारें उन्हें उचित अवसर जरूर प्रदान करें।

"Statistics show again that crores of labourers in country despite hardships, are sticking to traditions of having their bread by hard work, especially migrant labourers in Bihar and UP are somhow feeding their families working under MNREGA. So, Centre and State government should provide them adequate opportunities," she said in a tweet, roughly translated from Hindi.

बिहार की जानी-मानी राजनीतिक हस्ती व पूर्व केन्द्रीय मंत्री श्री रघुवंश प्रसाद सिंह के आज निधन की खबर अति-दुःखद। उनके परिवार व समर्थकों के प्रति गहरी संवेदना। उनका बेबाक व संघर्षशील व्यक्तित्व एवं बिहार की राजनीति में उनकी लम्बी व अहम भूमिका को लोग शायद ही कभी भुला पायेंगे।

"The general guidelines rolled out by the Union Home Ministry over lockdown/unlock for all the states is a welcome move and was demanded by the BSP in the past. This will stop politics being done under the veil of COVID-19 and help people during these trying times," she had tweeted.
