Congress Protests for Regularisation of Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam Workers
Congress leaders, led by former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, protested in Panchkula demanding the regularisation of all personnel recruited through the Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam (HKRN). They accused the BJP government of promoting contractual employment, undermining reservation policies, and reducing government posts from four lakh to 2.5 lakh. The Congress called for equal pay, benefits, and future recruitments through regular processes. Police imposed barricades during the protest, which caused traffic disruptions in the area.
