Kirti was still planning to protest when a bomb exploded near his protest site. After which a stampede broke out there and the police opened fire. Many workers were killed and more than 100 were seriously injured in this shooting incident. 
After this, in the International Socialist Conference in 1889, the innocent workers killed in this massacre were remembered.

The aim of celebrating Labor Day is not only to recognize their hard work but also to remind them of their To create awareness about the rights and also to protect them from exploitation.

 Even though workers play an important role in the construction and development of any country, even today they Being an unorganized sector, they are victims of exploitation on a large scale. Even if various laws are passed from time to time by local governments to protect the rights of workers in the industrial sector and other have been made but even today exploitation of the working classes is a serious problem in our country. Laborers generally belong to the poor and Dalit community. They often face low wages, poor and hazardous working conditions, and a variety of other Distributors have to face.

In western countries, artisans and laborers doing manual work are looked upon with respect. Along with the efforts of the government, common citizens also need to be sensitive towards the workers.
