Others stay in the city without revealing what they really do, fearing the abuse of their families.The core reason for this attitude of labourers is that they were brought up to believe that they are happy to be working in the fields, but not in other professions. They get repeatedly abused.'Their only option is to go back home without any other means of support. It is common that they work in farms, fields, construction sites or kitchens without disclosing their profession.

He was also worried that his family members might not be able to offer him a roof over his head when his term of service was over. 'I didn't speak about the issue due to the fear that my family members might not understand my job,' says Siddharth, a 'Bharat' lad. While he had no roof over his head, he was forced to spend the night in graveyards every day on the farm of his employers.His was a grim future. But he didn't tell his family about the job he had signed up for.
