A free Saturday legal clinic in Bengaluru's Yeshwanthpur area has helped roughly 180 migrant workers file wage-recovery complaints over the past six months.

Sessions are conducted in Kannada, Hindi and Bengali by volunteer lawyers and translators.

Organisers say the most common issue remains unpaid final settlements at small construction sites.
