Besides, the draft rules says that while deciding the minimum wage the country will be divided into three geographic categories -- metropolitan area having population of 40 lakhs or more, non-metropolitan area having a population of between 10 lakhs to 40 lakhs and rural areas. The draft rule says house rent will be 10% of the minimum wage but does not classify whether it will be higher based on the category of the cities people live. As economic migration –from rural to urban areas is an increasing reality in India, housing rent at 10% of food and clothing expenditure does not reflect the present day realities.
