Due to poor rainfall, people are struggling for employment and migrate to other areas of the district and province. The cotton and Spinning Mills do not provide preventive measures such as masks during working hours of the labourers, so they face respiratory complications and infections. So, people are searching an alternate employment for the livelihood that should be harmless to the health with friendly environment backgrounds. The proposed project initiates the poverty alleviation through income generation programs on self employment basis for their sustainable livelihood. NGO PROFILEName of the organization      : Karipatty Rural Organization for People’s Education 				                                                 (KROPE)     Address                                  : 3/88, A.N.

We informed to Salem District Collector and as per his guidance, Revenue Divisional Officer visited the Mill and found out the real fact and taken action for releasing the child labourers. Then, district administration issued Rs. 20000 for their rehabilitation and as advance Rs. 1000 was paid and then they were sent to their native place with the support of the Salem district officials. Tirupur People’s Forum was so supportive for this achievement.Two adolescent girls belonging to Villupuram district completed their three years work agreement at Pallipalayam Spinning Mill located near Gajjalnaickenpatti, Salem district. But she was denied the agreement amount Rs. 45000. Then with the help of Tirupur People’s Forum (TPF), we had interaction with the management of Mill and then the said amount was released to her.Under the Sumangalithittam, 41 young girls aged from 14-18 years were working in KKP Spinning Mils, Perumapatti, Namakkal District. The girls belonged to Trichirapalli, Pudukottai, Tiruvannamalai and Cuddalore districts. They were working and stayed in the hostel. It was known that they were treated as bonded labourers. The issue was taken to Child Welfare Committee and Child line 1098 of Namakkal district. They helped us to released all the girls and three month salary which was balance and given to them.Mrs. Malliga was working as a labour in SP Super Fine Cotton Mill at Kalpaganur village of PeddaNaickenPalayam and returned to home in Mill’s vehicle on 19th May 2019 at about 11.30 pm in the midnight; but when she got down at Thanneer pandal Bus Stop, a lorry hit her and passed at high speed In the Salem to Attur National High Ways. Unfortunately, the lady was died on the spot itself. She was 34 years old. Her husband was died about 10 years back. She has three children and she belonged to Arunthathiyar (Cobler) community and has no social and psychological support to her. Her service was 8 years in the mill in Combar Department. She was lastly paid as wages Rs. 280 per day and has PF benefit. But after her demise, the benefits were denied by the mill.Then we approached the District Collector of Salem, Labour Welfare Officer and given the petition but no response from the management of the Mills. Then we approached National Human Rights Commission, New Delhi (Case number 2504/22/31/2019). The commission was passed an order to present in person before the NHRC at Anna Century Hall, University of Madras, Chennai. The Labour Welfare Officer of Salem was asked to take the affected families, Management of Mill to Chennai. After the enquiry, the commission ordered to give the PF amount and Rs. 3000 each to three children aged 8, 10 and 12 years until the completion of 25 years as they are being as minors. When the workers were dropped to Veppadai village from Kumaramangalam, accident was taken place in Salem to Coimbatore National High Ways. In the accident, 6 women were died on the spot itself and 7 women were seriously injured. We took initiative for getting compensation to the victims. The mill management agreed to pay Rs. 30000 each for the demised persons’ family and hospital expenses of injured persons respectively. We have empowered and enriched the knowledge among the people of Salem and Kallakurichi districts under the topics of Rights of Labour welfare, Laws related to Labour welfare, labour and Social protection, Right To Information Act, Protection of Violence against Women, Prevention of Child Labour Act, Prevention of Bonded Labour Act, Government Welfare Schemes, Prevention of Child Marriages Act, Women helpline 181, child helpline 1098, Free Legal Aid to about 1 lakh population with the support of Ethical Trading Initiative UK.In 1997, we surveyed the villages with the guidance and support of District Collector, Salem about Bonded Labourers and taken the list of bonded labourers worked in Ayodhyapattinam and Vazhapadi blocks. We identified 100 bonded labourers worked in agriculture sector. The Revenue Divisional Officer, Thasildhar, VAO inquired the identified bonded labourers and released 36 labourers out of 100 as per their parameters. The released bonded labourers were issued milch animals, goats / sheep worth of 20000 for their immediate income sources and their livelihood. We filed a case in High Court of Madras to release the rest of the bonded labourers. But the High court could only release the 10 persons out of 64 bonded labourers. They also were provided milch animals and goats for their livelihood.  In 2007, with the support of Department of Schedule Caste and Scheduled Tribes, we took survey to identify the bonded labourers. We met 2000 persons and collected the information through prescribed questionnaire and submitted the filled in forms to the District administration, Salem.Due to the wide spread of COVID 19, the spinning and Garments industries located in Ayodhyapattinam block were closed. All the workers lost their employment and income sources and pushed in to the poverty with force. Due to lack of income sources, women and young girls were faced sexual abuses and violence for their daily survival. The people face struggle and difficulty even to face the medical expenses and the people were forced to borrow at high rate of interest. In such a situation, Rs. 5 lakhs was sanctioned by APPI, Bengaluru and we could help the affected persons as an interim relief to 50 women as monetary support of Rs. 1000 as cash support and another 450 women were given grocery, sanitary items, soaps and provisional items with the worth of Rs. 1000 and totally 500 beneficiaries were supported under the project.
