people
- local people are thrown out from the companies

migrants in the city:

their job due to the migrants. They asked us to give
First preference for the Tamilians.
 The following are some of their impressions.
1 . The North Indian Hindi speaking people to get rid of
them too - ‘North Indian should be chased out’ If a
North Indian comes to Tamilnadu and doing a
business successfully and living like maharaja then
why not these people. Treat every human as human.

2. The Telugu and Kannada Muslims Hindi valas and
Marwardis who come from neighboring states to make
Tamils minority in Tamil NaduThey express their
anger against them because they are taking away their
livelihood especially unskilled and manual works.
3. They worked hard for twelve hours a day but paid less
than the normal daily wages They really work hard
without any break during the working hours
4. They eat chapatti while working they would not take
break for meals
