The streets of Visakhapatnam witnessed a determined protest as municipal workers took to the forefront, demanding the regularization of their services.

This collective endeavor, fueled by the aspirations of these workers, underscores their resolute commitment to secure their rights. Despite recent police actions against the demonstrators, the resolve to achieve their goals remains unshaken, emphasized CITU State Secretary R.K.S.V. Kumar.

A significant driving force behind this protest is the demand for the YSR Congress Party government to enact the regularisation of contract and outsourcing staff services. The voices of these workers remain steadfast in asserting their rights, undeterred by any attempts to quell their agitation.

In affiliation with the CITU (Centre of Indian Trade Unions), the AP Municipal Workers and Employees Federation orchestrated a call for action that resonated across the state. This included a strategic plan to picket Collectorates in all districts, marking a significant step in their statewide protests. A central aspect of this movement saw municipal workers preparing to march from Saraswathi Park to the Collectorate, intending to bring their plight to the forefront of public awareness.

The determination of these workers illuminates their commitment to achieving just and equitable treatment in their employment status. As the struggles persist, the unity and resilience displayed by these municipal workers stand as a testament to their unwavering dedication to securing a better future for themselves and their colleagues. In a society where workers' rights are crucial, this protest serves as a reminder of the importance of ensuring fair treatment and protection for all laborers.
