Prior Commitments to Employee Welfare
Arvind Kejriwal’s government has consistently demonstrated its commitment to employee welfare and has recently made significant strides in this regard. On November 1, the Chief Minister announced the regularization of jobs for many employees of the Delhi Municipal Corporation. This decision brought much-needed job security to 6,494 sanitation workers in the city.
In a separate move to further employee welfare, the Municipal Corporation approved the regularization of 5,000 sanitation workers in a meeting held on November 5. These measures not only reflect the government’s dedication to its employees but also add to the festive spirit and joy during the Diwali season.
The Arvind Kejriwal government’s decision to provide Diwali bonuses to Group B and Group C employees is a thoughtful gesture that highlights the importance of recognizing and appreciating the dedicated workforce that contributes to the progress and development of Delhi. As Diwali approaches, this bonus serves as a reminder of the government’s commitment to the welfare of its employees and their families, spreading joy and goodwill during the festival of lights.
