Worker protests emerged again in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on Friday, causing significant traffic disruptions at the Delhi-Noida-Direct Flyway and Chilla border. Political leaders from the Samajwadi Party and Communist Party of India (Marxist) were stopped by police while attempting to meet with protesting workers. The unrest began on April 10 after the Haryana government increased wages for workers by 35%, leading to tensions in Noida. Police reported a gathering of workers in Sector 8, which was resolved after counseling. More than 6,000 police personnel were deployed across sensitive areas to prevent any escalation. Prohibitory orders were enforced under Section 163, which restricts public gatherings. Opposition leaders criticized the police's actions, calling for inquiries into the treatment of workers and demanding wage increases. The situation remains tense, with potential for further protests if the government does not address the workers' concerns.
