Mangalore, Sep 20: Members of several labour organisations, who came together under the banner of CITU, took out a protest march from Ambedkar circle (Jyothi Circle) to the Deputy Commissioner's office here on Friday, demanding minimum wage, check on price hike of essential commodities, implementation of labour laws and signing an agreement which gives the right to labourers to form unions and have their rights at work place.

Addressing the protesters at a public meeting in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner after the protest march, State unit president of the CITU B Madhava said that state government is not bothered about the working class.

"Issues concerning beedi workers, Anganwadi workers, Auto drivers, other daily wage labourers and construction workers have to be discussed in detail in the Assembly. Wages fixed in 2009 have to be revised,” he demanded.

Recalling the signature campaign by unorganised workers who had submitted a memorandum with 10 lakh signatures to the State Government, he said that the Government had failed to respond to it.

Sunil Kumar Bajal of Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) said that entry of multi-national consumer malls will affect vendors. Street vendors are seeking mercy. He said that since the auto drivers are not provided with proper auto stands in the city they have been paying heavy amount as penalty to the RTO.

K Balakrishna Shetty, CITU district general secretary handed over a memorandum to Assistant labour commissioner Nagesh during the protest meet.

Mangaluru, June 24: Congress leader Ivan D’Souza has vowed to serve the poor and practice as a lawyer in the city, as he completed six years of tenure as a member of Karnataka legislative council on June 23. 

Expressing satisfaction about his work as an MLC, he said: “I’m one among the three MLCs who have 100% attendance in the council. Meanwhile, I’m the only council member to utilise the privilege of raising five questions in each session. I brought several major issues to the government through the questions and succeeded in finding solutions to the problems of people.”

“During my six years of tenure as a council member, I could bring sanctions to the tune of Rs 46 crore through various departments. Meanwhile, financial aid to the tune of Rs 13.24 crore has been distributed through Chief Minister’s Relief Fund to nearly 1,600 beneficiaries. I will continue to serve the poor on my own as an individual. For this, I have set up an office in the premises of my house,” Ivan said, adding that he has distributed grocery kits and other essential items to over 18,000 families during the lockdown period.

“I have successfully fulfilled my duties as the chief whip of the government in the council and also as the parliamentary secretary to revenue department in Siddaramaiah and H D Kumaraswamy governments, respectively,” he said. 

Ivan said his office in the Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) building will be handed over to JD(S) MLC S L Boje Gowda. “My doors are always open for the people. I will strive to build the party in the state,” he added.
