No hope of a life of dignity for these bonded labourers
It is an illegal but accepted practice here to employ agricultural labourers and their family against a loan
Jasbir’s husband, Avtar Singh, had “sold” himself and his wife as bonded labourers against a loan of Rs. 45,000 four years ago, to the village landlord. He died this August leaving behind the unpaid debt.
