May Day was observed world over with participation of lakhs of workers in rallies, meetings and other activities. The International Workers Day was observed with enthusiasm in India also.
I attended the May Day Rally organised by CITU at Bengaluru. The same was held at Freedom Park after a big procession. There were large number of workers especially women workers from garments factories, domestic workers etc. In addition to CITU, it was jointly organised by AIIEA, BEFI, BSNLEU, State government employees etc. Com. Umesh, Secretary CITU, Prakash (CITU), Geetha (AIIEA) and other leaders addressed. I was given the privilege of presenting the domestic workers with the Identity Card issued by CITU. I thanked the organisers and congratulated the organisers and participants for the grand May Day Rally.
