Lack of Quality Labour Impairs Businesses in Maharashtra

Even though Maharashtra has started lifting the lockdown restrictions in the state, shortage of quality labour is incapacitating the small businesses. Reportedly, the labour scarcity, caused by Covid-induced large-scale reverse migration of workers, has led to a rise in labour costs. Catering business' owner Pankaj Kotecha said that he was paying three times more money to the workers now. Similar problems are faced by many other sectors also.
