Brick-kilns asked to adhere to HC order

Sangareddy: Owners of brick-kilns have been asked to strictly adhere to High Court directions regarding payment of wages to workers
only through their bank accounts. Apart from that, owners have been asked to provide basic facilities like toilets and bathrooms to the
workers at work place.

At a meeting held between brick-kiln owners, district administration and civil society organizations at the District Collectorate on
Saturday, District Collector Manickraj Kannan has warned the owners of brick-kilns that severe action would be initiated against anybody
who employs children at work. He has also asked the owners to operate brick-kilns only where primary health centres were nearby.
