NEW DELHI:) With trade unions observing a day-long strike against the Centre’s policies, the Congress on Thursday expressed support for them and Rahul Gandhi alleged that the government ignored the voices of workers and farmers while making decisions concerning their future.
Gandhi wondered whether Prime Minister Narendra Modi will listen to them now or if there is a “grip” on him too strong.
Employees and workers associated with a joint forum of central trade unions observed a day-long strike on Thursday to show their “resistance to anti-worker, anti-farmer and anti-national pro-corporate policies of the central government”.
