Ambattur conservancy workers protest
The Hindu
Conservancy workers in a few wards of Ambattur staged a protest on Tuesday against the decision of a new private agency to reduce the workforce.
They demanded jobs for 1,500 people who had been clearing garbage in Ambattur under the National Urban Livelihoods Mission. A few days ago, a private conservancy operator started clearing garbage in zones such as Ambattur and northern parts of the city. Most old conservancy employees under the NULM were not given jobs by the new conservancy operator. After protests by the conservancy workers two weeks ago, the police and civic officials held a meeting and suspended the operations of a private agency ahead of the Assembly election.More Related News
