Morang, May 18: Nepali Congress central member, Dr Shekhar Koirala, today appealed to factory workers to exert pressure to the government to ensure minimum wages for them stating they had been deprived of it.

Addressing an Organizational Campaign Programme held by Nepal Factory Workers’ Association, Koirala slammed the government for its incompetence to control inflation, black marketeering, artificial shortage of daily commodities and corruption.

He also took the opportunity to instruct party cadres to remain prepared for the local poll as it could take place at anytime.

“The local elections can take place at anytime, you should remain ready,” Koirala said. RSS
