| Mitigate daily wagers' problems, implement Minimum Wages Act: Kavinder | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 19: Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta on Friday asked the LG Manoj Sinha's administration to henceforth resolve the issues of daily wagers in J&K and implement Minimum Wages Act to remove pay anomalies among the working class in the UT.
While interacting with a delegation of daily wagers at Party Headquarters in Jammu, Kavinder vociferously raised the issue of daily wagers who are struggling since last so many years regarding various issues with main being the regularization of those workers having completed the minimum stipulated period in the government departments, removal of pay anomalies and timely release of the pay and perks.
Kavinder said that though this liability on the government is the gift of successive governments which have allowed such a large section of people to be employed temporarily with only aim of adjusting and handpicking few of the blue-eyed aspirants as otherwise there was no way out to induct them in government service. He said that the Central Government being the welfare state should find the via-media to resolve this stalemate between the daily wagers and the government because this could not be allowed to continue forever as also the daily wagers are the part and parcel of J&K's indigenous population therefore the government holds the onus to act compassionately to work out an amicable solution.
The former deputy Chief Minister also demanded early implementation of Minimum Wages Act in J&K to end the pay anomalies. He said that looking into the requirements of the people in today's time, it is necessary that the working class be given a handsome salary as envisaged in the Minimum Wages Act.
Kavinder sought the early implementation of the aforesaid Act in the UT to provide much required succour to the people doing odd jobs in the private sector as well as in public sector. He said that the implementation of the aforesaid Act in letter and spirit is the need of the hour to provide justice to thousands of workers earning bread and butter in private and public sector organizations. |
