Sanitary workers protest urging their charter of demands.

Hundreds of Sanitary workers working for the City Corporation staged a demonstration urging the Civic body authorities to construct new tenements for temporary sanitary workers  and also extend power connections to existing tenements at CMC colony.



While the permanent workers living in CMC colony in Variety Hall area are suffering without power connections, temporary workers continue to live on road sides. “While the tenements occupied by Sanitary Inspectors   have power connection, for sanitary workers this basic facility is denied “the sanitary workers alleged .

Condemning the  City Corporation’s move to evacuate them from the current settlement and shift them en masse to the newly created settlement near  Vellaloor, the sanitary workers said commuting from the remote locality to work would pose many problems and they wanted the civic body to abandon the move.



“There are enough lands to construct new tenements in CMC colony itself, but the authorities have not done so “ the protesting sanitary workers alleged.
