Employees of Loktak Development Authority (LDA) staged a sit-in protest at the gate of LDA complex on Wednesday in pursuit of their demand for implementation of the 7th Pay Commission recommendation and denounce failure of authority concerned to translate their assurances into action.
Speaking to newspersons, LDA Workers and Employees Union secretary P Shyamkumar pointed out that employees of Manipur Police Housing Corporation Ltd, which is a unit of the state government, are enjoying benefits of the 7th Pay scale while LDA employees working under the same government are being denied the same benefits as new pay scale has not been implemented.
Stating that sit-in will continue till December 3, he declared the Union will launch intense forms of agitations until its demands are fulfilled.
