Republic Day message from a labourer...

Bhagirath Verma a labourer from Bhilai says yesterday we celebrated Republic Day and the leaders said on this day our constitution was implemented. But I can tell you that none of the labor laws are applicable in factories. When laborers demand their legal rights, they are put behind bars. He says I want to advise our leaders to help laborers who are the backbone of our republic otherwise you will not have enough jails to fill them after labelling them Naxals
