In an unprecedented display of resilience, the 'Sangrami Joutha Mancha,’ a coalition of 35 unions comprising teachers, doctors, nurses, clerks, and other West Bengal state government employees, has been on a continuous dharna for the past 379 days. Adding to their protest, they have initiated a continuous hunger strike, now lasting for 480 hours. Their relentless demonstration is centered around the issue of pending dearness allowance, a demand that has been lingering for an extended period. The protesters remain steadfast in their resolve, emphasizing the urgency of addressing their grievances and ensuring fair treatment for all government employees.
