MAKE THE SOLIDARITY DHARNA ON 25-11-2020 A GRAND SUCCESS AND SEND EMAIL TO THE FINANCE MINISTER ON THE SAME DATE!
Concept: The weapon of strike is being wield by the working class and on 26th November they are going to use it. It is a gigantic task like building a bridge in deep sea! We the Pensioners support the action but our role is equal to the role of squirrel that helped the Ram Sena in constructing a Sethu across the ocean! We may be like squirrels but we join the working class while it is on the path of struggle! We should always keep in mind that without the working class and trade unions, pensioners will be easily crushed by the Government. So let us bridge a strong bond with the Unions! – KR GS AIPRPA
Very enthusiastic reports are coming in on the preparation of the National Strike on 26-11-2020 from almost all sections of the workers and the people at large. No doubt the strike will create a new history and milestone in the struggles of the nation.
