The Public Accounts Committee  has rapped the Employees State Insurance Corporation (ESIS) and the Labour Ministry for the unusual delay in construction of  hospitals entrusted to them.  Out of 63 projects for construction of hospitals planned and funds allotted, 53 are far behind schedule. The inordinate delay has been criticised by the CAG in its report.

These hospitals are for the treatment of workers who are contributing to the Employees State Insurance. Delay in construction, seriously affects the contributors in their treatment.

Modi Government speaks volumes on governance. What about this ? Any action going to be taken?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the 46th session of Indian Labour Conference today, 20th July 2015, and assured that the concerns of the trade unions will be taken in to consideration on labour issues. But there was no decision announced.

It is very different when speaking in the meetings/conferences with the corporates. Decisions in favour of them are announced. But nothing for the workers in the Labour Conference.

Of course, the government have different approach to the haves and have-nots, the corporates and the workers. The issue is whether we are to tolerate such discrimination?
