Ludhiana Anganwadi Workers Protest for Better Pay, Benefits

Anganwadi workers, who care for young children, protested in Ludhiana because they feel the government isn't taking care of them.

They want more money, as their current wages are very low, especially with rising prices.

They are unhappy that promises about raising their pay have not been kept.

They are also worried that if children go straight into pre-primary classes, they won't have as much work to do.

The workers want funds for smartphones to track data, better facilities, and benefits like gratuity after they retire.
