Jaipur : Once again sanitation workers in Rajasthan have warned of going on strike. On Thursday, a meeting of the executive and prominent people of Valmiki community was organized at the headquarters of the United Valmiki and Safai Workers Union. During this, union president Nand Kishore Dandonaria said that the experience certificate is not being signed by the administration. Also, experience certificates of people from non-Valmiki community are being signed at the behest of selected people. PF-ESI is being demanded from the employees of Valmiki Samaj.
Employees will go on strike if action is not taken within 24 hours
Before 2018, contractors used to make cash payments, there was no deduction of PF-ESI. Therefore, even the sweepers are unable to give its records. Last time when the sanitation workers went on strike, it was decided that after the experience certificate is issued from the contractor, it will be verified by the Chief Health Inspector. After this it will be countersigned by the officials. But this is not happening. Therefore, it has been decided in the meeting on 21st November that if the experience certificates are not issued within 24 hours, then the sanitation workers will go on strike after 24 hours.
People’s difficulties will increase
Earlier this year, sanitation workers had gone on strike several times. He had gone on strike in July also, then returned after 12 days after reaching an agreement with the government. Now if the sanitation workers go on strike again, people’s problems will increase.
