Whose money they are receiving from the banks? Taxes have been reduced at the cost of the people. Therefore, it is the social benefit that is being rendered. No pre-condition has been imposed that if you take advantage of the loan and you get the benefit of the reduced tax, you should not retrench. The Government is too weak to speak in a strong language to the corporates that you must not retrench the workers because we are giving you soft loan, because we are giving you the benefit of reduced taxes. The Government is too soft. Therefore, the question is, the Government is absolutely sleeping over the biggest national human deprivation problem in the post war period in India. Sir, top executive of real estate business have said recently in a statement that 10 lakh people will lose their jobs in the recent period. Textile industry has cut jobs of seven lakh workers. I hope the hon. Minsiter is taking note of what I am saying. Export business captains have said that 10 millions jobs more will be cut in the recent period. ASSOCHAM has apprehended more job cuts. On top everything, according to Times news, there has been an assessment made by the Federation of Export Organisations and they are apprehending loss of one crore jobs in India. These are the captains of industry. The situation is too grim to be overlooked. Sir, let me talk about the numbers. According to the Labour Bureau, five lakh people have been retrenched. The hon. Minister was saying this. It is thoroughly and totally an under-statement. It is incorrect. It is unscientific. It is an under-statement. I do not say it is untrue. But the point is, the Labour Bureau itself has admitted that it has covered only enterprises employing more than 10 people affected in India.
