Opposition parties and Central Trade Unions (CTUs) have condemned recent police actions against protesting workers in Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, attributing the unrest to the Union government's unilateral implementation of the four Labour Codes. They argue that these Codes have led to dissatisfaction among workers, prompting protests in industrial areas. The opposition is demanding that the government ensure fair wages and allowances for workers. The Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS), a trade union affiliated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), has also urged the government to take balanced and firm action in response to the unrest.
