Sad to see my words manipulated to dramatise the news. As mentioned in the body of the article, I had said, the Muslim workers from Bengal do not celebrate Durga Puja in Kerala. Toufik has not disagreed to that if one reads his response. Have greater expectations from @ttindia

Benoy Peter, co-founder of the Centre for Migration and Inclusive Development, Kochi, said that at least half the Bengali migrants in Kerala are Muslim and don't celebrate Durga Puja. But Toufik, 33, disagreed Read more here #DurgaPuja #Muslims #Kerala telegraphindia.com/india/durga-pu…

There is no decline in labour migration in India. In fact, migration is increasing, fast tracking human development in rural India

A study Profiling Labour Migration from Daringbadi Block, Kandhamal Dt, by CMID, in partnership with @GramVikasIN & supported by Axis Bank Foundation, uncovers the changing nature of migration from Odisha’s tribal hinterlands. Scan the QR code or follow: tinyurl.com/u9xns8nu

@AtishiAAP let us be "Dilwale' than 'Dilliwale'. No child should be denied school admission due to lack of docs. After all, most 'Dilliwale' are migrants. Let us deal with adults on irregular migration and ensure every child in school, the safest place for them #xenophobia

एक तरफ़ भाजपा वाले हैं जो बांग्लादेश से बॉर्डर पार करवा कर रोहिंग्याओं को दिल्ली लाते हैं और दिल्ली वालों के हक़ के EWS फ्लैट और दिल्ली वालों के हक़ की सुविधाएँ उन्हें देते हैं। दूसरी ओर आम आदमी पार्टी की दिल्ली सरकार है जो हर संभव कदम उठा रही है कि दिल्ली वालों का हक रोहिंग्याओं को ना मिले। आज दिल्ली सरकार के शिक्षा विभाग ने सख्त आदेश पारित किया है कि किसी भी रोहिंग्या को दिल्ली के सरकारी स्कूलों में एडमिशन नहीं देना है। हम दिल्ली वालों का हक छिनने नहीं देंगे!

The paper by @benoypeter & @libytj synthesises the programme experience & lessons learned by Centre for Migration and Inclusive Development & @GramVikasIN & provides insights on some of the high-impact strategies that could promote the inclusion of migrant workers at grassroots.

@libytj @CMIDTrust Thanks Liby @migrantcell_JH also flagged this case. We intervened. The workers' allegations are only partly true. The matter is settled today in front of the labour officer. They will be leaving

Workers come to cities with a hope of earning something, saving something, becoming more resilient to their shocks. But those who engage them in the cities exploit them and generally there isn't anyone to intervene. The India Labourline is evolving as a ray of hope
Centre for Migration and Inclusive Development@CMIDTrust

In the past 18 months, under the guidance of @AajeevikaBureau and @IndiaWpc, CMID helped workers secure over 55 lakhs rupees of unpaid wages/dues through @ILabourline , the national helpline for informal workers in distress. #Labourmigration #Wagetheft #Justiceforworkers

Nine out of every ten migrant workers in India are not part of any trade unions
Centre for Migration and Inclusive Development@CMIDTrust

#InternationalLaborDay commemorates the historic unity of workers in their struggle for rights. However, for migrant workers, unionisation often falls short, leading to differential pay & exploitation. Integrating them into trade unions is crucial for their rights and welfare.
