Another construction company in Oman has turned bankrupt evading the wages to 300-odd Indian workers most of them belonging to the two Telugu-speaking States. Some of the workers hailing from Srikakulam district, stranded for the past four months, alleged that the management of Petron, a construction firm, had stopped paying them wages. The relatives are having an agonising wait and are able to get calls only on WhatsApp as the stranded workers have no cash left with them.
