Here are some more voices from the migrant workers locked in areas of Sallaiya, Awadhpuri and Railway Coach Factory in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.
“We did not receive any ration. We did not find food packets for our children. We did not get any cash in our Jan Dhan account. Our neighbours helped us as much as they could...”
“Am standing here with a group of 50 people. We have not eaten anything for the past two days. Please help us or we will starve to death...”



The Jan Sampark Samuh Bhopal is a loosely banded network of Individuals and organizations responding to the humanitarian crisis of COVID 19. Many in the group have a history of activism and hence the group is able to look at larger issues of food security and access to qualitative health services in the context of fundamental rights. Most belong to the old city area which houses the most marginalized population, with a majority of Muslim community and Gas Tragey survivor colonies. These areas also house vulnerable communities including transgenders, commercial sex workers, women and children in shelter homes, district hospital, migrant workers on construction sites.
