All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) national council member Ujjini Ratnakar Rao demanded the government to address the issues of civil supply hamali workers.
Nalgonda: All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) national council member Ujjini Ratnakar Rao demanded the government to address the issues of civil supply hamali workers.On Monday, he participated as guest to a sit-in by civil supply hamali workers at the Nalgonda collectorate.
Addressing the workers, he said, "Government wants to ruin the lives of hamali workers in the name of cash deposits in bank accounts. This move will deprive hamalis of their employment across the State and lakhs of dependents would suffer for their bread and butter."
He demanded the employers to pay wages as demanded by the workers and asked the government to keep its promise it made to them earlier.
AITUC district general secretary P Devender Reddy demanded the government to implement Supreme Court's ruling of equal pay for equal work. He blamed the government for not implementing apex court's directions and expressed concern over government's negligent attitude towards workers problems. He demanded the government to pay Rs 18,000 as minimum salary besides regularising their services.
