The construction sector in Mysuru which was hit by labour scarcity in the run-up to the polls, is breathing easy as the situation is expected to return to normalcy a day or two after the conclusion of the polls.
Bulk of the labour force for most civil engineering firms in the private domain tend to come from the rural hinterland of Mysuru.
Nanjangud taluk provides the maximum number of workers followed by Chamarajanagar and this is more so during the non-agricultural season when there is hardly any work in the fields till the onset of monsoon. Hence male workers tend to find work as daily labourers in the construction sector.
