The recent pandemic followed by an unanticipated lockdown left millions of people jobless and unpaid . The six months was partially the reflection of dooms day but for downtrodden people it was through and through the time of castastrophic destruction and death. People belonging to all factions including the people of so called super powers were compelled to kneel down before the might of an epidemic. The corona threw the gifts enveloping anxiety, depression , fear of death ‘ famish and autophobia . But yet the owners of the private sectors who had been sucking the blood of employees have refused to pay the salaries. As many people term this ( private sector) as modern slavery. In past six months the world witnessed so many problem. Millions of people kicked the bucket out of starvation. This actually paved the way to social issue like suicide because of poverty, depression and empty pocket . On the other hand, government employees were paid by government that’s why they could manage their affairs in this arduous time but the job less or the persons who were dependent on private institutes were looking for miracle. Now when all the private sector espacially education sector particularly private schools have reopened, the ray of hope emerged in the eyes of affected class. But what was observed , the owners of schools declined the demand of teachers to pay them the salaries of past six months saying that school had great loss and they had recieved no fees. Infact , this was no true. They ( the owners) of private schools are misusing their authority saying if any employee demands the salaries of previous months may be terminated. This is new start and those who want to continue should stay others are free to fly , if they want. Their this attitude has dejected many. The people especially bread winers of their families find no alternstive other than sucide. Their wounds ought to be cured . The relief could only be provided by government alone . They( government) need to learn the miseries faced by poor faction. -(The writer is a freelance columnist, based in Karachi.)
