: Some industries in Coimbatore and Tiruppur are reporting that migrant workers are returning to their home States, fearing another lockdown because of the second wave of COVID-19. “Nearly 100 workers employed at the Kurichi SIDCO Industrial estate have left Coimbatore to their home States in the last three or four days. They went in two buses,” says P. Nallathambi, president of Coimbatore SIDCO Industrial Estate Manufacturers Welfare Association. “There are reports of another lockdown and workers fear they will be here without work.
