I am Sarati from Ayapakkam. During this corona, domestic helpers are struggling alot. Just few minutes back a person spoke. Though the work is given, they are not getting old income. They are struggling alot. Santhanamari mam asked many people to give the welfare card and helped them in getting the welfare board benefits. Still 5-6 people didnt get the money. Mam said they will getting some time. Also there are widows here and they are asking for widow pension. Many widows who have lost their husbands due to alcohol addiction are going as domestic helpers. They are sharing with me that it will be good if they can get widow pension. Union is helping in getting old age pension, scholarship. I dont know about widow pension but it will be good if you can help in getting this. There are few responsible men who are struggling to take care of family during corona. Not all are responsible there are few men who are drinking and living in their own way. Women are struggling to take car of the family.
