CITU urges workers to join ‘Chalo Parliament’ protests in Delhi

The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) in Andhra Pradesh urged workers to join nationwide protests, known as 'Chalo Parliament', in Delhi. General Secretary A.V. Nageswara Rao emphasized the need to protect labor rights and oppose policies that negatively impact workers. At a meeting to celebrate the World Federation of Trade Unions' 81st anniversary, Rao noted that labor struggles are gaining momentum globally.

CITU Visakhapatnam district leader R.K.S.V. Kumar criticized the Centre for introducing four labor codes that favor corporations, potentially threatening job security and working conditions. He also accused the State government of pursuing privatization policies. CITU has called on workers to take part in their 'Chalo Parliament' program in Delhi from December 1-3, advocating for higher wages, job security, and an end to privatization.
