J. Bhushan asks AG to answer two queries, “Submissions have been made regarding ESI fund. Whether can be utilised for helping workers?

AG responds, “It cannot be redirected, but they can borrow from it.”

J. Bhushan - “Query 2 is that submission that this order was issued only for migrant workers, what do you say to that?l

AG, “I wouldn’t restrict it. Main objective was that if they get paid, they need not migrate.”
