What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

PWD officials in Goa assured about 1,800 workers employed through the Goa Public Works Department Labour Supply Society that their services will be regularized within two months, along with applicable benefits. This assurance came after the Indian National Trade Union Congress Federation submitted a memorandum to PWD Minister Digambar Kamat. The Supreme Court had previously granted the state government four months to complete the necessary formalities.
