India’s oldest Socialist Weekly!
Editor: Dr. G.G. Parikh | Associate Editor: Neeraj Jain | Managing Editor: Guddi
Even though existing wage related labour codes and the Code on Wages 2019 do not effectively incorporate the principle of ‘Equal Pay for Equal Work’, judicial precedents have enshrined the value. As the Maruti workers complete six months of agitation, it is promising to be a struggle with a formidable impact on the Indian labour regime.
The Centre recently came up with the idea of four Labour Codes on four broad categories: wages; industrial relations; social security; and occupational safety, health, and working conditions. This paper looks into the critical areas of the proposed Codes.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
