Garhshankar- CITU Foundation Day was celebrated here today under the chairmanship of PCMSRU leader Vishal Gupta. On this occasion, CITU Punjab Vice President Mohinder Kumar Badhoan, Manjit Bhatia, Dhanpat Baldev Raj told about the history of CITU and said that CITU was formed on 30 May 1970 in Calcutta. Today it has been 55 years since its formation.
The slogan of unity and struggle against the anti-labor, anti-farmer and anti-farmer policies of the Modi government at that time has become even more relevant today, because the Modi government is going to implement 12-hour duty by abolishing the 8-hour duty made by the workers in 1886 through 4 labor codes.
Along with this, a big attack is being made on the rights of trade unions in the country, which the working class will not tolerate at any cost.
Speaking about the demands, the leaders said that minimum salary of Rs 26,000 per month, abolition of contract system, permanent employment of workers, giving them Rs 700 per day, stopping privatization of government departments, putting all the strength in the nationwide strike on July 9 to get the above demands accepted, this strike will give a befitting reply to Modi's anti-labor policies. 
On this occasion, Punjab leader of farm laborers Gurmesh Singh, District President of Janwadi Stree Sabha Neelam Baddoan strongly supported the strike on July 9. On this day, maximum number of farm labor women will participate. Sanjeev Sonu Mahtiana, Puneet Sethi, Ram Niwas Parmod also addressed on this occasion.
