(1)Unable to pay rent, Boisar driver makes factory shed home

 

Suresh Yadav had been working as a commercial and private driver in boisar since 1999. The 42-year-old lost his job during the second wave. “When the government placed restrictions in palghar, his taxi vendor asked me to quit. That was on April 25. Although he paid me for my services, he had to leave rented house to cut down on costs so he could send money home.

Yadav said his wife and three children stay in Bihar, but he can’t go there and has to find a job in boisar itself. “What will I do in my village? There is only farming and nothing else. There won’t be any work for me,” he says.

 

Yadav, who is now living under the shed of a factory, said he borrowed money from his friends to send it to his family in Bihar. Ending the conversation on a positive note, he said he’s hopeful of finding a job soon after restrictions ease.

She have five children, and none of them are in an age to earn. Whatever little savings she had are over and They are desperately looking for any kind of work.They  have survived Covid, but might die of hunger,” .
