On the situation arising in the country, the Ministry of Health said on Wednesday that migrants are going through social, psychological and emotional crisis in the event of lockdown. The ministry has said that sometimes, migrant laborers have to face harassment and negative reactions from the local community. All this strengthens the demand for social security. It further states that migrant workers are taken to temporary shelters to spend a few days, including isolation wards. In front of migrant workers, there is concern about food, shelter, health care, fear of getting infected and loss of wages and family.
