Rahul chats with gig workers in Bengaluru; assures welfare board, corpus fund

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: Keeping in view the hardship of delivery persons, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday reiterated his party’s promise to set up a Gig Workers’ Welfare Board in Karnataka with a corpus fund of Rs 3,000 crore and minimum hourly wages for them.
Gandhi spoke about the promise once again during an interaction with gig workers and delivery persons of various companies here in poll-bound Karnataka.
Over a cup of coffee and masala dosa, Gandhi discussed with them to get an understanding of the lives of delivery workers, lack of stable employment and rising prices of basic commodities, Congress said in a party release.

He also keenly listened to why the youngsters had taken up gig jobs, and what were their working conditions like, the release stated.
“Bengaluru alone has over two lakh people doing gig jobs. The Congress party has made specific promises for them in the manifesto, mainly to set up a Gig Workers’ Welfare Board with a corpus of Rs 3,000 crore and to ensure minimum hourly wages for gig workers and other workers in the unorganised sector,” the party said.
Gandhi later hopped onto the pillion seat, and went on a ride with a delivery partner.

SL President assures external creditors of transparency in resolving debt crisis

[ad_1]
Colombo: Sri Lanka President Ranil Wickremesinghe has assured the island nation’s external creditors of maintaining full transparency in resolving the debt crisis and getting the country back on track.
Awaiting the much-needed $2.9 International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout which is expected to be taken up at March 20 board meeting by the Washington-based lender, he encouraged both bilateral and private creditors of Sri Lanka to strengthen coordination between themselves and engage constructively with Sri Lanka for a swift resolution of the public debt situation.
He urged the country’s official bilateral creditors and the Paris Club creditors, to foster the coordination required for the much-delayed IMF supported programme.
The Sri Lanka President thanked India and other creditors including Japan, China and the Paris Club bilateral partners for enabling the cooperation required to arrive at this point and explicitly delivering IMF-compatible financing assurances.
“We commit to communicating transparently with all of you on any debt treatment terms that are agreed with any creditor or group of creditors, before being formalised. In the same vein, we commit to reporting regularly on our indebtedness, ensuring no financial liabilities incurred by the country are undisclosed,” President Wickremesinghe said.
Wickremsinghe, who took over from Gotabaya Rajapaksa who fled the country amidst public outrage over mismanagement and leading it to a severe economic crisis last year, assured that Sri Lanka is committed not to resume debt service to any creditor unless that creditor agrees on a comprehensive debt treatment in line with IMF-supported programme parameters and the comparability of treatment principle.
“We will not conclude debt treatment agreements with any official bilateral creditor or any commercial creditor or any group of such creditors on terms more favourable than those agreed under any multilateral platform put forward by our official bilateral creditors,” he said.
With over $50 billion external debts, Sri Lanka, last May, defaulted on its debt for the first time in its history. Suffering the 2019 Easter Sunday attack followed by Covid-19 pandemic and world economic crisis, the Indian Ocean island faced a severe financial crisis with inflation and dollar crunch since the beginning of 2022.

Tejashwi assures action against Sudhakar Singh for repeated attacks on CM

[ad_1]
Patna: Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on Monday said that his RJD will take action against MLA and former minister Sudhakar Singh for repeatedly targeting Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
“The party has already taken his clarification for attacking Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. Still, he is repeatedly attacking him. It indicates that he was guided by BJP and RSS and playing on their pitch. The matter is in the cognisance of party’s national President Lalu Prasad Yadav and he has asked national General Secretary Abdul Bari Siddiqui to look after it,” he said.
“At present, the health of Abdul Bari Siddiqui is not right. Once he recovers from the illness, he will form a committee to probe this matter and submit the report before Lalu Prasad Yadav to take action against him,” Yadav added.
Sudhakar Singh on Monday said that the Nitish Kumar government has failed in every sector in the state.
Earlier JD-U MLC Sanjay Singh strongly objected to the repeated statement of Sudhakar Singh against Nitish Kumar after the meeting of Mahagathbandhan’s legislators in Bihar Vidhan Sabha.
“The water has gone above the head. When will the RJD take action against him?” he asked.
