Raghav Chadha Defends Gig Workers' Rights Amidst Startup Ecosystem Criticism

AAP MP Raghav Chadha has reiterated his support for gig workers, criticizing platforms for labeling striking workers as 'miscreants' and framing labor demands as a law-and-order issue. Chadha stated he is pro-business but against exploitation, arguing that success should not be built on squeezing workers. He highlighted concerns over fair pay, safety, and social security, suggesting that platforms requiring police presence to operate indicates a failing model. Critics, including former NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant, accuse Chadha of politicizing the gig economy and potentially harming job creation.
