Gig and platform workers across India are striking nationwide, demanding a minimum monthly pay of ₹40,000, an end to the commission system, and access to labor protections like social security, regulated work hours, and basic facilities.

They seek government intervention to address these issues, including unrealistic delivery timeframes that lead to ID blocks.
