Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it

“I would like to acknowledge RUBAL's commendable efforts in empowering migrant workers. Their ongoing registrations in Pune and focus on skilling and entrepreneurship are inspiring. I’m excited to know of their leadership program for migrants that will be a boon for many. Kudos to the team for their dedication to this vital cause—keep up the incredible work!”
Dilmeher BholaSocial Worker CYDA
“I look at myself as a Leader, and RUBAL’s initiative ‘Migrants Collective’ has developed that leadership qualities in me. It is really essential to be united to fight against injustice.”
Lakeshwar Patel Migrant Construction Worker (Chhattisgarh)
"It is tough when you don't have proof of identity particularly when you are an interstate migrant. People suspect and look at you as a criminal. RUBAL helped me a lot by providing a labour identity card, which made my employer verification process so easy. People at RUBAL have translated all information regarding documentation into Kannada language, which made it easy for me understand everything."
