Condemning attacks on Hindus, Mamata says persecuted Indians need to be rescued and rehabilitated, seeks PM Modi’s intervention

- SULAGNA SENGUPTA

WEST Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday urged the Centre to move the United Nations to seek deployment of peacekeeping forces in Bangladesh where minorities have come under attack. She also sought PM Narendra Modi's intervention in bringing back persecuted Indians from the neighbouring country.

Addressing the assembly, Banerjee condemned the attack on Hindus in Bangladesh and called for stricter measures.

She demanded that the external affairs minister appraise Parliament on India's stand on the current situation in Bangladesh. "The statement from the EAM should come during the ongoing winter session, if PM Modi is unavailable to do the job himself," the CM said.

WHILE the recently introduced labour laws have, for the first time, prohibited gender disparity in the workplace and given statutory backing to the principle of ‘equal pay for equal work’, labour and HR experts say that substantial groundwork is required from employers to make these rules truly implementable. They fear that without adequate logistical and infrastructural support, some of these provisions may end up as mere box-ticking exercises.
