National Convention of Workers to be held at New Delhi on 18.03.2025..

The CHQ has already informed that, the government is hell-bent in implementing the four anti-worker and pro-corporate Labour Codes. The Joint Platform of Central Trade Unions and Independent Sectoral Federations / Associations is vehemently opposing the four Labour Codes. The Joint Platform has accused that, the government is promoting crony-capitalism and is killing the Public Sector Enterprises and the public services. Implementation of the four Labour Codes will create a serious challenge to all the basic rights of the workers, relating to defined working conditions including working hours, minimum wages, social security, etc. The four Labour Codes are a threat to the trade unions, their recognition, agitations and struggles, including the right to strike. In essence, the Labour Codes are a blueprint to convert the working people into slaves of the corporates and employers. Under these circumstances, a meeting of the Joint Platform is held on 04.02.2025. The meeting has decided to organise a National Convention of workers at New Delhi on 18.03.2025. The venue of the Convention is Pyare Lal Bhawan, Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, near ITO. The timing of the Convention is 10:30 am to 03:00 pm. The circular of the Joint Platform states that, the National Convention will take decision to intensify the struggles against the four Labour Codes, including a General Strike, to be organised in May, 2025. The circular of the Joint Platform is enclosed for the information of our comrades.
