"Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee strongly condemns the police action over the daily wager workers at Srinagar who were protesting for their genuine demands in a peaceful manner," President JKPCC Ghulam Ahmed Mir said in a statement issued here.
Mir said that the government resorting to "cane-charging" on the protesting daily wage workers was an uncalled for move.
"They were protesting for release of wages and regularisation of their services. This kind of action of the government is highly objectionable, as the employees were protesting for their genuine demands, as they are not getting their wages for months together," he said.
