___________________________________________ It is really sad that thousands of workers are living in extreme poverty in abandoned tea gardens, especially in Bengal. We hope government ensures their basic necessity and alternate livelihoods. The Hindu: There seems to be no solution in sight for the thousands of workers who are “trapped” in the closed tea gardens in North Bengal. Over 30,000 employees and their families are now in a way trapped in these gardens. Most of them, especially the old and the infirm, continue to live in their quarters without electricity, water or any wages, as mill owners have simply disappeared leaving them to their fate.Over 30,000 trapped in abandoned tea gardens in North Bengal thehindu Mill owners have disappeared leaving families in the lurch Link: ift.tt/1k4gEpD Time: June 30, 2014 at 09:50AM ___________________________________________
