Union Minister for Water Resources and Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) Chief Saifud-din-Soz on Friday promised workers that he will work for an increase in their wages to bring them at par with the remuneration received by labourers in Kashmir valley.
"I am seized of the problems of workers and will leave no stone unturned to provide much awaited justice to them," Soz said while addressing a rally of Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC) here. As per the existing situation, while the remuneration for the workers is fixed at Rs 2100 in Kashmir, those in Jammu get Rs 1500 only.
"I will not allow disparity between the workers of different regions to continue any more. I will shortly initiate steps to remove the disparity with the casual workers of Jammu region with regard to wages and ensure that they get Rs 2100 per month as assured to them several times," Soz said.
He also called for regularization of those workers who have completed seven years of service.
