Imphal, July 23 2022: Power minister Thongam Biswajit said that labourers should be given priority status in the society.

Attending as chief guest of the 67th foundation day celebration of Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh Manipur state unit held at GM Hall here on Saturday, Biswajit said that labourers are one of the most important components of the society and they should be accorded priority status.

About 60 to 65 per cent of the total population of the country are youth and the Modi government is taking up various initiatives to provide skill training to the youth, who are the work force of the country.

Further stating that labourers are categorised into skilled and unskilled, he stressed on the importance of upgrading skill and making the unskilled labourers well versed with different livelihood trades through relevant departments.

At the same time, all types of labourers should not feel ashamed of their jobs and professions.

Instead, they should feel proud of their profession and their sincere lifestyle, the minister said, while calling upon the work force for cultivating positive thoughts as it is the key to a healthy and prosperous life.

On the other hand, negativity brings despair and destruction in the society, he added.

Underscoring the importance of women in bringing development in a society and making India self-reliant, the minister hailed Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh for its initiative to improve the status of women in the society.

Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh Manipur State president Loukrakpam Sanatombi and Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh Manipur & Nagaland Saha Sangathan Mantri Namoijam Tomba attended the event as presidium members.

Past presidents and office bearers of the organisation were also honoured at the function.
