BHUBANESWAR : A migrant worker of Balangir has appealed to Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and his Andhra Pradesh counterpart N Chandrababu Naidu to rescue his minor daughter who has allegedly been held captive at a brick kiln in the neighbouring state and made to work on behalf of her parents.
The labourer Margasira Bag, a resident of Dhatuk village in Balangir, said a labour sardar Sriram Bag of Raikhal village in the district had a year back lured him and five of his family members including his wife Padma Bag and nine-year-old daughter Amrita on the promise of good wages against work in a factory in Andhra Pradesh.
However on reaching the state, Sriram allegedly employed them at a brick kiln owned by one Apna Naidu in Maddi village, Vijayanagaram. The brick kiln owner allegedly made them work for 16 hours per day and the child was engaged in flipping bricks to dry.
