Demanding to clear their allowance, to pay off their salary, to bear the expenses along with a total of 4 charters of demands the Tripura brick field labour association backed by CITU on Saturday placed deputation to labour Minister Shahid Chowdhury.
It is to be mentioned here that as production of brick is a labour intensive sector, a large number of efficient work force is needed for this industry. All of the brick industries in the study area employ both local and migrated labourer’s .In the brick field’s area number of labourer’s ranges from 50 to 410. On an average 101-200 labourers are employed in majority of the brick fields. These are considered as medium scale industry in terms of labour force. On the whole, the number of migrated labourers is quite high in the brick fields of this basin area. Most of the brick fields absorb more migrant labour than the local. The migrated labour comes from Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Orissa and Uttar Pradesh. Among which Bihar shares the highest proportion and Uttar Pradesh shares the lowest.
Reportedly, brick fields are considered as the indicator of increased urbanisation as well as of a growing economy. However, unscientific manufacturing leads to severe environmental problems and the present study area is no exception to this general rule. From the aforesaid analysis it is found that the main low of the river is gradually narrowing along with sedimentation in the lower stretches down to Jirania. Water quality is also deteriorating leading to several health hazards.
