Gig Worker Social Security Rules Spark Debate: AAP MP Calls it a Win, Unions Say 'Nothing New'

AAP MP Raghav Chadha hailed the Centre's draft social security rules for gig and platform workers as a "small win," emphasizing it as a step towards recognition and protection. He criticized platforms like Zomato and Swiggy for not addressing worker concerns, stating the government did. However, labor unions and policy experts countered that the rules are based on the Social Security Code, 2020, passed years ago, and represent an ongoing process rather than a new political achievement.
