New Delhi: On the occasion of International Workers’ Day, Dr. Rajeev Menon, National Secretary General of the Republican Party of India (Athawale), extended heartfelt May Day greetings, celebrating the tireless efforts of workers who form the backbone of the nation.
In his message, Dr. Menon underscored that May Day is not merely a symbolic event, but a powerful reminder of the historical struggles and sacrifices made by the global working class in the fight for dignity, fair wages, and safe workplaces. He emphasized the urgent need to continue defending labor rights and ensuring justice, especially for workers in the unorganized sectors who often remain unheard and unprotected.
Reaffirming the party’s dedication to the ideals of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, Dr. Menon highlighted the RPI (Athawale)’s vision of equality, empowerment, and inclusive growth. “Today, we honor every worker — from factories and farms to construction sites and digital platforms — who contributes to building India’s future,” he stated.
Dr. Menon also appealed to policymakers to enact more inclusive labor laws, bolster social security schemes, and invest in skill development initiatives to empower India’s vast workforce and prepare them for the challenges of a changing economy.
The message resonated strongly across party units and labor communities in several states, further reinforcing the RPI (Athawale)’s grassroots commitment to the welfare and dignity of workers.
