A successful action gives lot of motivation in the work ......…… Ravi – YCW Full-timer

 

   


ravi.jpgI am Ravi Jayaprakash. I am the national secretary and the full-timer of YCW India. I am organizing the young workers in the district of Thiruvarur. I started to contact the young agricultural workers in Parutiyur, a village in the district of Thiruvarur from January this year.

 

I started with an investigation about the situation of the workers in this village. Through this investigation, I discovered that most of the workers in this village were working in agricultural farms on daily wage.

 

Moreover, these workers would have work in the agricultural farms only six months in a year. Therefore, the other six months either they are unemployed or migrate to towns and cities to find work. In this situation, the 100 days job program was introduced in this village by the government and they started to work in this program. However, I discovered that they do not have the awareness about this 100 days job program and their rights while working in this program.

A young worker from India

My dear friends,
Felix
Felix Xavier, Tamil Nadu
I am happy to share with you my experiences and how I developed myself through the movement Young Christian Workers.
My family situation
I am Felix Xavier (28 years of age). We are six in my family. My father was Xavier. He died in 1988. He was working in the cooperative shop. My mother is Rita (55 years of age) a social worker organising women into self help groups. My younger brother is Brutus Xavier (27 years of age) working as a plumber in construction. Another younger brother is Stubert Xavier (24 years of age) working printing press. My youngest sister is Benasir Mary (21 years of age) doing Masters Degree. My grand mother is Maria Nesam (78 years of age). My mother took the whole responsibility of my family after the death of my father. She did not have any permanent job to get the income to run the family. Therefore she had to borrow money from others to spend for our education. We did not have regular food and at times and we were starving. We could not buy dress like other children in my neighbourhood. This experience developed inferiority in me. I was not confident to speak with my friends and felt depression in my life.
