Trade unions to go ahead with Sept 2 strike
Rejecting government's 42% hike in minimum wage as "completely inadequate", trade unions on Tuesday decided to go ahead with the nationwide strike on September 2. "We demand they should enact a law to fix minimum wage," AITUC General Secretary Gurudas Dasgupta said. Earlier, the government announced the wage hike to ₹350 a day for unskilled non-agricultural workers in central sphere.
