Building a Wider
Horizon With Labour
In support of their several demands, including hike in their daily wage to Rs 351, a large number of tea labourers under the aegis of the Assam ChahMazdoorSangha (ACMS), assembled at the field of Moncotta Tea Estate on Monday. As part of the ACMS sponsored 'Shramik Garjan' (labourers' howl) programme, the labourers of Dibrugarh, Sibsagarh, Charideo and Tinsukia protested against the BJP government's 'indifferent' attitude towards the welfare of the tea tribes' community and its failure to hike the daily wage of tea laborious to Rs.351 as promised in their 2016 election manifesto.
