The Assam Media Employees Federation (AAMEF) has welcomed the recent Supreme Court verdict upholding the constitutionality of the Majithia Wage Board for journalists and non-journalists.
AAMEF president Hiten Mahanta and general secretary Keshab Kalita, in a statement, advocated for full implementation of the recommendations of the Majithia Wage Board in every media house in Assam.
Extending gratitude to the Assam Tribune group of newspapers here for being the first in the country to implement the Wage Board recommendations, the AAMEF urged all media houses to follow suit.
The AAMEF appealed the Assam government to take steps to get the Wage Board recommendations implemented by all newspaper houses in the state.
