Reply: I am Ponnusamy from TLRF. If a person is losing his life in work place, the family will get 1 lakh as accident insurance. If you are losing any body part after the certification on Govt doctor you will get compensation from Rs. 50000. Meet incharges of Ambedkar union from your area and get more clarity about it.
I am Ponmarathi from Arasadi colony, Irkankudi village. I am a tailor. Now the situation is even if I stitch 10 blouses people are not able to pay for it. Govt has announced so many schemes but its difficult to manage day to day life. Though the Govt now says not to pay any loan after 2-3 months they will come and ask us to pay the whole amount. It will be more difficult for us. Govt is asking to stay at home for our safety but workload for women remains the same. They have to cook food for everyone. There is no rest for women.
Sudha Interviewing Jaikumar - He works in Hotel Tamilnadu from last 5 years and getting salary of Rs. 10000. Due to corona all hotels are closed. Govt is giving Rs. 1000 and free provisions. But he says Rs.1000 wont be sufficient. Things are costly in Kodaikanal. So Govt should consider it.
I am Jayasudha, head from Kodaimalai Ambedkar union. Govt has announced to give Rs.1000 per family. Works related to it has started everywhere. Already due to corona virus livelihood of people got affected and they are struggling. To get Rs. 1000 people are going in crowds and controlling them is becoming difficult. Add is given regarding social distancing and crowd gathering but people think that Rs.1000 may be helpful for them. Govt should make necessary arrangements so that people should not gather as crowd.

I am Ponnusamy from TLRF. Tamilnadu Govt has imposed section 144 due to coron and people are following it. Staffs and incharges of Ambedkar union, Kodaimalai union, Aditamilar union, Semmalar union are regularly sharing the problems faced by the people in their area. Its really sad to know. Appreciation and thanks to all union heads on behalf of TLRF for sharing the situation with Govt. requesting all to continue to record in NK radio.
I am Vimala from Aditamilar union. Due to lock down all people are at home and not going to work. Normally if both husband and wife goes to work money will not be sufficient. Rich people will have money for their expenses. What will daily wagers and abandoned women do? So Govt Rs. 1000 is not sufficient so requesting to increase the amount.
Interview With Sangeetha - She is working in a textile shop in Kodaikanal. Due to lock down they are staying safe at home. She gets monthly salary of Rs. 6000. But this money is not sufficient for her family expenses. Now she has to manage with Rs. 1000 which Govt is giving.
A great saint once told his disciples that God is everywhere. The only way is seeing God in every object and thing we see. Disciples heard him and kept it in his mind and decided to see God in everything and everywhere. Evening the disciple went for a walk. An enraged elephant was running uncontrollably in road. The mahout shouted to run away from its way. everyone started running but disciple didnt run anywhere. He tried to see God in uncontrollable elephant. He was standing religiously on the road. That elephant might has watched some football match, it kicked the disciple and disciple flew and fell near coconut tree. People managed to carry him and drop near the saint. Disciple got angry and told saint, you only asked me to see God in everything. Just because of that i tried to see God in an enraged elephant. Is it wrong?? Now look at me. I am fully damage now. The saint said, you tried to see God in enraged elephant but you failed to see God in Mahout who was alarming you to move away. God will show up but we have problem in the way we see it. If you go inside a hungry tiger's cage, will it leave you?? Never. God will save you but we also should be precautious. Govt is saying Corona virus attacking so stay at home and maintain social distance. If it infects a person everyone near and around him will be infected. TV Radio everywhere Govt is announcing it. Just for this Govt has asked for social distancing. This is not a situation where we can take medicine after we get infection. Because till now no one has found medicine for it. So prevention in better than cure hence Govt has announced this lock down. Lets also follow social distancing. Only if we need to go out on emergency basis, go with all preventions. Secondly, for youngsters and elders who think they cant stay home, listen to me. If you are going back home safely then ok but if you are going back with virus, the whole family will suffer. Do keep it in mind.
