No real improvement in workers' lot: Mayawati
LUCKNOW, May 2 -- Extending greetings on the International Labour Day, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Friday said although workers are making a tremendous contribution to the national building, but 'they face hardships and employment uncertainties due to outsourcing and hire-and-fire system'.
In a post on X, she wrote: "Although no expected improvement in the condition of male/female workers and labourers across the country has been visible despite efforts, the importance of 'Labour Day' cannot be denied even today. On this occasion, heartfelt congratulations to all the toiling masses engaged in daily life struggles and good wishes for their 'better days' ahead."
"The government's policies have an adverse impact not only on the upbringing of the labourers' families but also on their education and health. In the pursuit of development, not just the workers' future but their life is at stake, which does not seem right at all," Mayawati claimed.
"At the same time, women workers in particular do not get a truly safe environment, which remains a matter of concern in India. On May Day, there is an appeal to all governments to ensure the rightful participation of the worker/labour class in the country's development. After all, the BSP's struggle is and will remain dedicated to the rights of those very toiling Bahujan community," she said.
In a separate post, she paid tribute to Gautam Buddha on his birth anniversary. "It is the responsibility of the governments to immediately address the difficulties faced by the followers of Gautam Buddha and resolve them," Mayawati said.
"The BSP government during its four terms in UP ran the party and the government on the ideals of Buddha. It made every effort to fulfil the constitutional duty of "justice for all" by establishing the rule of law for the first time. Under subsequent governments, the lives of people are troubled due to the poor law and order," the BSP chief claimed....
