Migrant labour plays an important role in our society and contributes much share for social and economic development of society. In spite of this fact, they are the most excluded group and majority of them are engaged in the informal sector. It is also seen that women are a large part of migrant workers. Informal sector extracts much specially from women and contributes less to them. One of the reasons behind engaging migrant labour in the informal sector is illiteracy. Children of these migrant labourers also take part in earning for their family and ultimately depart from their education. There are many provisions for the education of children.

India is the second largest producer of Brisk in the world. There are 452 brick kilns in Jhajjar district only. All kilns have the same kind of work process. On the basis of the quantity of bricks prepared, there are three kinds of brick kilns. First type brick kilns prepare 40000 to 50000 bricks per day. Second type brick kiln prepares 70000 to 80000 bricks per day. Third type brick kiln prepares 80000 to 100000 bricks. Most of the brick kilns in Jhajjar district fall under the second category. Working period of these kilns is from October to June. During the monsoon period, kilns remain closed and most of the workers return to their native places. Apart from this, thousands of people migrate for ‘Dihadi’ informal work in other fields like construction labours, scavengers, street vendors, vegetable sellers, rickshaw pullers etc. It is clear that they spend a longer duration at their working sites and Thousands of children are left behind from education every year.

Our organization is providing education to children of migrant laborers in Jhajjar District of Haryana State. Daily classes from 08:00AM to 12:00PM are being conducted near their working site.
