JAMMU, MARCH 10: Police thwarted a protest march of PHE Daily Wagers moving towards the Civil Secretariat on Monday in Jammu.
Holding tricolours, scores of daily wagers expressed solidarity even as resentment towards the Government for not acknowledging them in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Budget.
PHE Employees United Front members said, “We have given 30 years to this department. We are not Pakistanis. We are Indian and hold Constitutional right to stage protest.”
PHE Employees threatened to cut the water supply by March 20 if demands not met.
Amid the slogans, “JK Chairman Hai Hai” “Omar Sahab Hosh Main Aao”, scores of Daily Wagers shouted while demanding their pending wages from the administration.
Heavy deployment of Police Force was ensured to foil the protesters from moving towards administrative complex.
