There are a few hapless migrant
families in the district here who have been held captive in the brick kilns of
Andhra Pradesh, where they undergo all trials and tribulations.
While during the Nuankhai, family members from far and wide
congregate at home in western Odisha to celebrate the grant festival and get
blessing from the seniors, for these families, who are destined to live amid
penury, mental and physical torture, the festival has little meaning.
According to reports, the family members of Laxman Chirangula of
Munapali of Belpada block, who had migrated to brick kilns of Andhra Pradesh
last year, are not permitted to go home. They are virtually held captives by
the owners of the kilns.
According to a petition by Jata Chirangula, father of Laxman, to
the District Collector, one Madhu Kumbhar of Belpada had taken his son, wife
and four children to work in the brick kilns of Andhra Pradesh, a year ago and
ever since they have not returned home. “When I lodged a complaint with the
Belpada police, they did not take any action,” alleged Jatan Chirangul and
appealed to the district administration to rescue his son and other family
members from Madhapur in Hydrabad.
