"I want to express my gratitude to L&T Construction, architects, and workers involved in the construction of the building. I thank the company, but I do not agree with what the company's chairman has said about 90 hours of work in a week."
While commenting on working hours, he remembered Nehru and Ambedkar.
Mallikarjun Kharge also underlined the stance of the then Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar while making the Factory Act. Kharge said that Pandit Nehru and Dr. Ambedkar also advocated 8 hours of work in a day.
The Congress President said that workers should not be made to work for more than eight hours a day. Now there is talk of 12 hours and 14 hours. Those who believe this should give up this idea. I disagree with this.
