Death of the worker in Shiracha power plant in Kutch
S.U.C.I. DEMANDS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF SAFETY NORMS AND STRICT LABOUR LAWS, COMPENSATION AND ENQUIRY
The Socialist Unity Centre of India (S.U.C.I.) Gujarat State Organising Committee expresses deep anguish over the death of the worker in Shiracha ( Near Mundra - Kutch) in the power plant of Adani Group on 7th May; falling from the top of the chimney of 228 feet height. This incident of worker's death has again exposed the absence of safety norms for the workers, and least respect for the labour laws in Gujarat by the industrialists, contractors making the whole state as the haven for ruthless exploitation of the workers in the name of development.
S.U.C.I. condemns the reign of terror by the police on the aggrieved workers and registering cases of rioting on 5000 workers, who were demanding adequate compensation and justice from the company.
S.U.C.I. demands adequate compensation to the family of the deceased workers, compensation to the injured, safety for the workers and the strict implementation of labour laws, a high level inquiry and action against the culprit. And withdrawal of cases against aggrieved agitating workers.
S.U.C.I. will again draw the attention of the Ministry of Labour of both Central and State Governments, NHRC, and International Labour Organisation (ILO) about the working condition of workers ands flouting of all labour laws in Gujarat.
