"Blessings of Maa Samaleswari strengthen PM Modi's leadership," says Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan

Speaking to reporters, Pradhan said, "By the blessings of Maa Samaleswari and Mahaprabhu Jagannath, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership has been greatly blessed. Bihar's CM Nitish Kumar has been greatly blessed by the people of Bihar. It is by god's grace that people's faith turned into confidence..."

Meanwhile, on Saturday, Pradhan hailed the Central Government's rollout of the four new labour codes, saying the reform package will open up fresh employment avenues, strengthen the economy, and thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi "on behalf of the youth, labour force and the people of the nation."

Speaking to ANI, Pradhan said, "I thank PM Modi on behalf of the youth, labour force, and people of the nation. This will play a big role in increasing employment opportunities and will give a huge boost to the economy of the nation."

In a historic decision, the Government of India has announced that the four Labour Codes, the Code on Wages, 2019, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the Code on Social Security, 2020 and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, are being made effective from 21st November, rationalising 29 existing labour laws, according to the Ministry of Home Affairs.

By modernising labour regulations, enhancing workers' welfare and aligning the labour ecosystem with the evolving world of work, this landmark move lays the foundation for a future-ready workforce and stronger, resilient industries driving labour reforms for Aatmanirbhar Bharat.

According to an official release issued by the Ministry of Labour and Employment, many of India's labour laws were framed in the pre-Independence and early post-Independence era (1930s-1950s), when the economy and the world of work were fundamentally different. (ANI)
