Barkhast is a people's movement — fighting for fair tax treatment, social security and policy reforms for India's laid-off workforce. You are not alone in this.
Every year, thousands of Indians are laid off with no unemployment protection, TDS deducted on severance and PF stuck for months. We exist to collect your stories, fight for policy change and connect you with experts who can help you navigate this — right now.
If you have been laid off
Our volunteers include legal experts, tax advisors and HR professionals who give their time freely to help you navigate this difficult period.
Join the movement
If you have expertise in law, policy, communications or tech — lend your skills to a cause that matters. All roles are remote and unpaid.
No minimum time commitment. Volunteer from anywhere in India. Every skill — from 2 hours a week to full involvement — makes a difference.
