In Mohali, Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Gurantee Act contract workers staged a protest against the indifferent attitude of the Punjab government and denial of justice to the employees.

Up in arms against the Punjab government, scores of contract workers of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act on Tuesday assembled in front of the office of the Rural Development and Panchayat Welfare in Mohali and lodged their protest .Demanding increase in pay scale and regularisation of jobs, they raised slogans against the government.

NREGA employees said the authorities were asleep while the employees were suffering. They have threatened to intensify their agitation in case their demands not met. And this strike by more than 1,200 contract workers has badly affected the work in Punjab.

Earlier on Sunday, the protesters were assured of early solution to the problems but nothing has been done till date.
