Srinagar, Apr 10 (IANS): In Kashmir, public transporters and daily wagers who lost their livelihood in the lockdown and also post Article 370 abrogation on August 5, 2019 have been worst hit.
"We have stocks for 10-15 days now. We appeal to the government to help us," said an auto rickshaw driver in Srinagar.
"Things are getting really difficult for us. We want the government to announce a package for transporters and daily wageers on the lines of Delhi," said a taxi driver in Srinagar.
"We will be happy to transfer money directly into the bank accounts of transporters and daily wage labourers when such a scheme is announced. So far no such scheme has been announced," said Haneef Balkhi, ADC Srinagar.
