New Delhi: The 48-hour strike called by the Joint Trade Union Committee (JTUC) against the central government’s policies continues.
Essential services have been excluded from the strike. The main demands are the repeal of anti-labor labor codes and the protection of the interests of farmers. The national strike also partially affected Delhi.
The strike was brought to the attention of the national capital by bank employees and a protest by LIC employees. Members of the Congress-Left party demanded that the parliament adjourn and discuss the issue of fuel inflation and the national strike. Opposition MPs staged a walkout to protest the central government’s decision not to discuss the issue as an urgent matter. Delhi Kerala House employees participate in strike
Kodikunnil Suresh MP said that along with the increase in fuel prices, the increase in the prices of medicines is also making the lives of the people miserable. In front of LIC, Delhi had the highest number of protesters. The strike also had a slight effect on areas including Ghaziabad as the United Kisan Morcha was part of the protest. Workers in companies on the Delhi border also went on strike.
