AITUC accuses Modi of running ‘anti-worker’ Govt; threatens 40-day campaign

NEW DELHI, June 4: Accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of running an “anti-worker Government”, leading trade union body AITUC today said it will launch a 40-day nationwide campaign to amass people support to vote out the BJP in the next Lok Sabha elections.
Speaking to reporters here, the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) leader Amarjeet Kaur also alleged that “Modi has put the nation on sale” and his Government does not believe in any dialogue with the unions.
Piqued about the cancelation of dates of the National labour Conference, the annual tripartite meet which was to be held in february this year, the trade union leader alleged that the PMO had earlier agreed on dates for the conference but cancelled it as Modi was not ready to face the trade unions over the Government’s labour policy.
“… His Government is anti-workers, which does not believe in any dialogue with unions, does not honour bipartite or tripartite mechanisms and considers labour laws and trade unions as hindrance to growth and development,” Kaur told reporters. (PTI)
