AIUTUC Protests Demand Immediate Enforcement of Karnataka's Revised Minimum Wages
The All India United Trade Union Centre (AIUTUC) held protests in Kalaburagi and Mysuru demanding the immediate implementation of Karnataka's revised minimum wages for contract workers. The union criticized the State government's delay and the Finance Department's reported proposal to suspend the wage revision, calling it detrimental to workers' rights. Despite a May notification revising wages after a long delay, AIUTUC alleges administrative withholding of implementation, urging the government to enforce the revised wages promptly to support thousands of affected workers.
