Deputation of daily wagers calls on MLC Vibodh Gupta
A deputation of daily wagers from different departments which includes PHE, social forestry and PDD under the leadership of its leader Tariq Shawl called on MLC Vibodh Gupta and apprised him regarding the problems being faced by them.
They informed Vibodh Gupta that inspite of the fact that their names were figured in the final list of departments, they are not getting their salary on time.
They appealed to MLC that many festivals like Eid, Dussehra and Diwali are approching and they want that their salaries should be released before them.
After listening to the issues raised by the deputationists, MLC told them that the coaltion government is committed to resolve this long pending demand and the government has started process of identification of daily wagers by online fiiling of their particulars which is almost completed.
He further added that during the tenure of present coalition govt no daily wagers is appointed because the daily wagers appointed by previous governments were not regularised and the previous govt just exploited them and make false promises of regularisation.
He told them that a separate budget will be kept for their salary and it will be resolved permanently and he added that govt is well aware of problems being faced by them and focusing on regularisation of daily wagers.
He assured them that he will take up matter with higher authorities so that they can get their salary before festivals.
Later Union leader Tariq shawl appreciated MLC for showing his concern towards them and listening to their problems.
