क्यों उतर आए मज़दूर सड़कों पर? Noida Worker Protest, Labour Laws & Social Security|Aasan Bhasha Mein

2 months ago 26


In 1918, Ahmedabad's factory workers faced plague, floods, and skyrocketing prices due to World War I. When mill owners withdrew the plague bonus, workers demanded a 50% wage hike. Led by Anasuya Sarabhai, the sister of a mill owner, they launched a historic strike. Mahatma Gandhi joined the movement and undertook his first hunger strike in India, leading to a landmark 35% wage increase through Satyagraha. Fast forward to today, Recent protests in Noida saw factory workers take to the streets with chakka jam, sloganeering, and violence over wage hikes and social security issues highlighting the ongoing tension between labour and capital. This episode of 'Aasan Bhasha Mein' breaks down Social Security in simple terms, its history from ancient Rome and Kautilya to Bismarck’s Germany, India’s labour laws, and the 2020 Code on Social Security that finally covers gig and platform workers. We explore Marx and Engels on exploitation, Hayek and Friedman’s warnings on welfare dependency, and Jean Drèze’s views on fair wages. Why do workers protest? What are the arguments from both sides?
