Casual labours of Verinag development authority in Anantnag on Friday staged a protest demonstration against their pending wages.
Eyewitnesses told The Kashmiriyat that a representation from casual labourers and daily wagers of Verinag Development Authority (VDA) held a protest demonstration demanding to release pending wages.
Casual labourers and daily wagers said they are working in the department for a long and they are yet to be regularized because of which they face hardships. “Due to long-pending wages, we face hardships,” a protesting employee said.
He added that if their demands are not fulfilled soon they will take to the streets with their children.
They have demanded special intervention from the Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha to resolve their genuine demands on first priority basis.
