Labour shortage due to reverse migration to hit real estate hard

The reverse migration of workers since the government announced the lockdown to contain the covid-19 outbreak is a serious issue for labour-intensive sectors such as real estate. Also, with basic support from the government for three months, many interstate migrants may not return to work anytime soon.
