Sacked pvt employees from Raj protest at Delhi; Gopal Rai

The Delhi government today sought the intervention of Centre and Rajasthan government into alleged sacking of several employees by a private two-wheeler company.
In a letter to the Centre and the Rajasthan government, Delhi Labour Minister Gopal Rai has said 102 regular and 3,000 contractual employees of the company's Rajasthan's plant have been sacked through "wrong means".
The letter addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Labour Minister Bandaru Dattatreya, Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje and state Labour Minister Surender Pal Singh seeks their immediate intervention.
He said the sacked employees, who have got diploma and are qualified from ITI, have been on an indefinite hunger strike for the last 18 days at Jantar Mantar.

The move comes after a delegation of protesting employees of the company met the Delhi Labour Minister and apprised him of their problems.
"In view of their serious problems, there is need to take immediate action in the matter. I request you to issue instructions to officers concerned so that they could get justice," the Minister said.
