Gig and platform workers have called for a strike in the city on November 14 to demand social security, workers’ rights, and welfare measures, according to the Telangana Gig and Platform Workers’ Union (TGPWU). TGPWU office-bearer Shaik Salauddin said on Thursday that Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has been invited to join the rally with the union extending gratitude to him for “his advocacy and action for the welfare of gig and platform workers”, especially against the backdrop of the 2023 Bharat Jodo Yatra.
“The Telangana Gig and Platform Workers Act 2026 provides a vital legal framework for worker rights, centered on mandatory registration, social security benefits, a dedicated welfare board, and an effective grievance redressal mechanism.
The state government has formulated the rules for implementing the Act, initiating steps to constitute the Welfare Board and launching a dedicated app to register workers and resolve grievances,” Mr. Salauddin said.
