SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Repeal Of Three Farm Laws Ignites Hopes For Scraping Of Four Labour Codes
Farmers across the country are rejoicing the victory of their yearlong agitation against the three farm laws, a fruit of their consistent movement not only against these, but also the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his BJP across the country that enforced him to announce their repeal. It has ignited a new hope and energy in the workforce in the country who have been agitating against the four labour codes for almost the same length of time with no success. The reinvigorated Central trade unions are now planning to show their might on November 26 protest and two-day general strike in the country during the Budget Session 2022 of the Parliament of India. The joint front of 10 Central Trade Unions have termed the four controversial labour codes ‘anti-labour’ and have been demanding scraping of the same ever since they were passed in the Parliament of India in September 2020. The Code on Wages was passed in the Lok Sabha on July 30, 2019, in Rajya Sabha on August 2, 2019 and had received the assent of the President of India on August 8, 2019. The Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, and the Social Security Code was passed in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on September 22 and 23 respectively, and got presidential assent on September 30. Thus the country has been witnessing the two movements – one by farmers and other by workforce – against Modi’s enactments – one on ‘agri-market reforms’ and the other on‘labour reforms’ originating almost simultaneously, with two different results. Just beforecompletion of one year of agitations on November 26, the alleged ‘anti-farm’ laws areannounced to be repealed, but there is no sign of scraping of the alleged ‘anti-labour’ codes.Can the workforce enforce the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to withdraw the fourcontentious labour codes also?The answer to this question is not easy at this point of time. There is, of course, certaincomparability between workers’ agitation and the farmers’ agitation, but there are greatdifferences too. Farmers’ agitation somehow gained sympathy and support from everycorner of the globe, from across India, from almost all political parties, from all sections ofsociety, organizations, associations, trade unions, students, business and transport, andeven from the opposition ruled state governments who passed resolutions against the threefarm laws. Moreover, the farmers remained united despite loss of lives around 700, caseseven related to sedition and arrests, suffered being defamed even as having terrorists andanti-national support et al and maintained consistency in their protest in their by and largenonviolent satyagraha, which though remained focused and apolitical resorted to politicalcampaign against the BJP and Modi. However, the agitation of the workforce against thefour controversial labour codes lacked many of such things.Workers lacked unity and consistency in their agitation against the four labour codes. It isbecause their unity and consistency are not sustainable in the first place due to theirlivelihood issues. The farm sector sustained the farmers’ livelihood even when they were agitating. Even workforce in the farm sector finds sustenance there. However, workforce aremore vulnerable and easily fall prey to all sorts of exploitation for a few morsels of food. Wehave seen it during COVID-19 crisis. Unity among them and consistency in their agitationneed much more efforts on the part of trade unions, which are themselves in crisis ofexistence in the post-COVID-19 world of work which is in rapid transition. Traditional ways oforganizing the workforce and their agitation has been already rendered ineffective, and tradeunions need to innovate to strengthened themselves and to protect the interest of theworkforce which has become even more urgent now. Modi government wanted to implement all the four labour codes at one go across thecountry from April1, 2021. However, it required states to be ready with rules according to thecodes, which remained incomplete because they were busy in tackling the COVID-19 crisis.Moreover, the private sector too needed to change themselves to fit into the new codes, forwith it required more time. Though the Draft rules for Code of Wages were ready in 2019,the Union government held it back, only to implement it along with the whole range of labourreforms with the four codes.Union Ministry of Labour & Employment has - Kapilkumar M. Hirpara now been exerting enough.
