The casual workers entered into an agreement with the paper mill's management who agreed to pay interim relief to the over 1700 workers in deference with the revised remuneration as announced by the Central Labour department, HPC Casual Workers Union sources said.

The workers returned to their work today after their indefinite dharna and a sit-in demonstration since Thursday affecting normal production works of the paper mill located in central Assam's Morigaon district.

The workers were demanding revised remuneration as announced by the Central Labour department and implementation of the Gauhati High Court order issued three months ago for the HPC to pay the revised remuneration to the causal workers, Kalita told reporters.
