NTPC cheated workers by Rs 1 billion by not paying minimum wage

Kaladas Daharia from Chhattisgarh Mukti Morcha in Sipat in Bilaspur district in Chhattisgarh says that with all opposition from traditional and established trade unions we are trying to build a genuine trade union in National Thermal Power corporation. He wants to give a calculation. Non permanent workers do not get minimum wage in NTPC so they are getting cheated Rs 1300 per month. This way if you calculate for 10 years and 10,000+ workers then NTPC has cheated the workers to the tune of more than 1 billion and the trade unions are not raising it.
