Demand for Arrest of Sanitary Inspector for Extorting Money from Contract Workers

Some eighty years ago, Ambedkar had warned us 'if Hindu Raj becomes a fact, it will, no doubt, be the greatest calamity for this country' and he could not have been more prophetic.

UNORGANIZED Workers Association (AIIMS, Phulwarisharif, Patna) and AICCTU demanded from the Bihar and the Central governments that the two contract workers agencies CHS and Sampurna at AIIMS Patna should be blacklisted. These companies are flouting labor laws, adopting an insulting an autocratic attitude and are not paying due wages. These agencies have recently forcibly extorted money from about 800 workers. The union has demanded the arrest without delay of CHS Senior Manager Piyush Gautam, Supervisor Satyendra Singh, and AIIMS Sanitary Inspector Rajiv Singh Chandel, legal action against them, and return of the extorted amounts to the workers.
