NEW DELHI: The Delhi government has hiked minimum monthly wages of unskilled and skilled labourers by Rs 450-Rs 550 in view of high rate of inflation, according to an official statement on Friday.
The increased minimum wages for labourers will be applicable from April 1, it said.
“The hike in minimum wages will give respite to the labour class facing back-breaking inflation. The Delhi government is paying the highest rates of minimum wages in the entire country,” Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said.
The hike in minimum wages for labourers has been done in view of the increase in dearness allowance for government employees, the statement said.
