I am Vijayalakshmi from eri scheme. Yesterday we went to Chepauk for the press meet. Everyone were present there and they asked us to speak. I was really scared. Earlier i used to be even more scared But after joining the union and talking in Urimai kural we are not scared to talk. Earlier when we went to Delhi for meeting i was really scared. But after joining Urimai kural i speak daily and i am ot scared anymore. Yesterday we went to the meeting and Dhanalakshmi madam asked me to talk in mike. I never thought that i will speak in mike. I am a domestic helper. Inever thought that i would get an opportunity to talk in the stage. Everything is possible only because of Sujatha madam and Santhanamari madam. Only because of them we are getting such opportunities. I will never forget this. e are really happy. Earlier I had an inferiority complex but through this Urimai kural i am no more feeling inferior than anyone. Do listen to Urimai kural and register your views.
I am Vijayalakshmi from eri scheme. Madam came here yesterday and gave a notebook for domestic workers. That book is really helpful. With the help of that book we can know the timing of entry and exit. How many hours are we working, everything we can know. Not only that you can write your bank account number also in that book. We should thank union for this. Only after joining union, we started to speak with people. Through Vandumurugan we are able to know the law related to us. Vandumurugan is really good. Pushpprani give health tips it was really helpful. All the programs are really good and we are able to get many information.
I am Hepsiba from Mogappair. We attended the meeting, it was really useful. We didnt knew what is UK. Only now we came to know about it and we understood that we will get answers here. Daily i will listen to UK.
I am Ramalakshmi from Mugappair. Santhanamari madam from PTS has come for the meeting and she told about pension. She also spoke about domestic helpers. She also told that we are discussing about domestic helpers and asking for Rs.50 as minimum wage. But they are agreeing for Rs.40. I would like to tell that it would be great if they could consider it and increase the money. Regarding pension, central Govt has agreed to give Rs.3000. It would be good if state Govt also give the same amount. There are many old people. It will be great help if they get this amount.
I am Vijayalaskhmi from eri scheme. All the programs in Urimai kural were nice. And especially information about Jeera was really useful. I really liked it. Madam told about Rathna. If you are born as a woman you need to help everyone and be an example. All the programs which are played now are really nice. They are taking so much of effort to collect the news and making it to reach us. Get all the news from Urimai kural and make use of it.

I am Vijaylakshmi from eri scheme. I heard all the programs of Urimai kural. Its new and really good. Mam told in labors news that women have grown so much. We are really proud and happy. Periyathai has got her pension by filing the case. Because union was there to help her she came to knwo about this. So i am saying everyone to join the union. If we are alone wi cannot do anything. I can achieve something if we join union. Periyathaiyamma has struggled alot. Now she got her money. In the same way, many are struggling without getting old age pension. So if you join union you can also get the pension.
I am Periyathai. I am doing the work of breaking stones. They asked me to join union and i joined. They told me if a stone breaking worker joins union, they will get the pension when you are 60 years old. After being 60 years i was waiting to get pension. Papathi and i requested and wrote for pension. Atleast i had children they gave me something to eat and now i am alive. But she had none to feed her. She fell down and expired. She should have been live if she had given that pension. Its been 3 years now after her death. Govt didnt give pension and she lost her life because of no food. She was a ragpicker and her leg got slipped and she was dead. We went to the union and Just like her please dont allow anyone to die due to hunger. If she had got the pension money she should have not gone as a ragpicker and she would be alive by eating something with that Rs.1000 pension amount. The union people said done feel sad we will help you in getting the pension. Just like they filed case and helped me in getting money, even they will help you too. Be hopeful.
