Srinagar, May 1: Apni Party president Altaf Bukhari on Sunday urged Jammu and Kashmir administration to roll out welfare programmes for the working class in the Union Territory to ensure the lives and livelihoods of them are uplifted.
In his message on “International Labour Day” or “May Day”, he said: “The day reminds us of the sacrifices of the working class, and provides us an opportunity to renew our pledge to achieve rights for this inseparable class of our society.”
He urged the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha-led administration to roll out required measures and welfare programmes for the development of the working class in Jammu and Kashmir to ensure the lives and livelihoods of people belonging to the working class are uplifted.
He said workers and laborers in both organized as well as unorganized sectors are part and parcel of the whole society, and no society can progress until the due rights are given to these workers.
He said that his party will always stand with the labour class and will not leave any stone unturned to ensure the welfare of the workers of Jammu and Kashmir.
“We ought to protect the rights of workers, especially the marginalized ones in both the organized and unorganized sectors. Workers are the backbone of every society and it is the duty of the society to ensure better working conditions, job security, health insurance, and so on for these workers,” Bukhari said.
“The day reminds us about our duty towards the working class. We ought to fight for the protection of the rights of our working class,” he further said.
