PANJIM: The Goa Union of Anganwadi Workers held a protest in Panjim on Saturday where the anganwadi workers employed by the State government demanded a hike in their pay.
Progressive Front of Goa (PFG) extended their support to the anganwadi workers. PFG leader Adv Hrudaynath Shirodkar pointed out that this has been a long pending demand and much deserved. While the anganwadi workers also touched upon the increased cost of living and inflated prices of essential commodities. They also described their years of service and the type of work they had been doing without any raise. Past promises to increase their payment have also not been delivered.
