“But today, the government has backtracked from their promises saying that they will look into our issues,” the protesting workers said. “We have called to lock down all Anganwadi centres, since the government is not serious about enhancing our salaries despite out tireless work,” another protestor said.
The protesting workers alleged that they get the least share from state government apart from central funds as compared to Anganwadi workers of states outside Kashmir.
