Dear Comrade,
After series of agitational programs(Dharnas infront of State Labour Commissioner's Office at Shimla, Rallies and Memorandums) organised by HPMRA under the guidance of state CITU general secretary Com. Dr.Kashmir Singh Thakur since its affiliation with CITU in the year 2005 and back up documentations of "minimum wage" of other states provided by FMRAI,
It gives me immense pleasure to inform you that HPMRA have been fighting with the state government to create a "Schedule for SPE's" in Himachal Pradesh, After 10 years struggle of our members and CITU leaders, the HP govt.not only create a schedule for SPE's as "HIghly Skilled Workers" in the month of September,2015 but also published the notification of "Minimum Wage" in the month of November,2015 for SPE's of Himachal Pradesh along with other categories.We at HPMRA sincerely thank the state CITU leaders who have advocated our issue in the minimum wage board meetings and FMRAI leaders for their support and guidance.
HPMRA salutes the tireless efforts of Com. N. Kaushal FMRAI WC Member, our veteran leader Com. P.K.Sharma and all those warriors who worked hard despite many difficulties,challages and hurdles to keep the flag of HPMRA always high since its existence in the year,1986 and regularly educating our members about the importance of trade union movement and role of FMRAI for the cause of SPE's in India.
Yours Comradely,
Jagdish Thakur,
